INTJs are motivated by Ni-Te and ISTJs are motivated by Si-Te. Both types want to feel competent and effective but how they achieve that is different. INTJs analyze abstract patterns to create meaningful purpose and direction for themselves through conceptual vision. ISTJs analyze concrete details and compare them to existing detailed knowledge, grounding themselves in the present by relying on past experience. INTJs want to feel comfortable in knowing what the future holds and working towards it.

ISTJs want to feel comfortable in knowing their existing knowledge is still viable and wanting situations to verify that. INTJs look for gaps in knowledge and create new meaning to explain those gaps by observing external standards in new and different ways. ISTJs look for gaps in knowledge and try to cover them over with established knowledge of external standards until the demands of the situation leave them no choice but to incorporate new knowledge incrementally.

I have taken these personality tests many times in the last ten years and seem to flip flop between INTJ and ISTJ. Was curious what the differences really are between the 2.

[MightyDoomerChannel]

Took a personality test twice and I switched from INTJ to ISTJ. This video helped me understand that I'm one of the purest INTJs 😂 It's possible that I was concerned so much of getting an INTJ result again that I answered some questions without my true self-consciousness

[vallynjoy]

I'm an ISTJ and my boss is an INTJ... Now it makes sense why I'm always tired and stress🤐🤣🤣🤣

[PGOuma]

INTJ's are so cool. Sometimes I wish I was more like them

[rurisuoh]

Just a casual INFJ passing. You guys are cool :D

[roytating]

Now, I'm sure I'm ISTJ, got INTP, INFJ AND ISTJ before. I researched more and really had an honest talk with myself and asked my wife things about me. I always compare the past with present, if there's something new, I check it if I've encountered it before. If I'm trying something new, I'm almost always sloppy, I say "jeez, why am I sh*t at trying new things? Maybe it's not in my database". Wish I was more intuitive like an INTJ, you could go on with life and take risks because you have the gift of intuition.

I was trying to be nice to both of them but they treated me badly.
Could you proof me wrong?

Have a nice day especially ...
to you *INTJ*

[aziza]

my husband is an istj while iam an intj

[barbaradps]

I was not sure about wether I was ISTJ or INTJ, but after having done lots of research and watching this video and knowing that INTJ don’t think that they are INTJ like some sort of impostor syndrome or idk and knowing some INTJ stereotypes and memes too vs ISTJ memes and stereotypes, yeahh I’m probably INTJ! I also have a friend that is ISTJ and I observe her to see how she thinks and acts and well she has an agenda, takes notes that are really organized, loves having her stuff organized, yeah I’m probably not ISTJ *Looks at empty note book even though the teacher asked to take notes but they are just useless so I don’t note, very badly organized room and work space that I feel are in order when very badly organized and I honestly don’t care much because I think that organizing is useless, many questions I’ve recently asked myself, my imagination and stories I create, me being the quiet kid in my own world, a person in university that I spoke to and thought I was wayyyy to much thinking about the future, etc. 😂😂😂 Such a long comment, sorry

[ThePirateHunter]

Even after seeing this video, I still do not know haha. In each of these points, I'm always like "it depends".
I feel like I might be an ISTJ with a pinch of INTJ, is that possible?

As for "new against old", I like to stick to established rules, if they always worked and still are efficient, there is not point to change them. But if there are new rules than can indeed heighten efficiency, then I see no point in not adapting the rules. There are times to follow authority and there are times to overturn them. I don't like to stick to either of them and choose objectively based on the situation.
As for "conversation" I'm a clear INTJ. The rest is ISTJ.

I'm so confused, help me lmao

[queening]

My bestfriend is INTJ, Im an ISTJ heheheh

[sameerapatel]

Personality tests say I'm istj but i feel like intj damn confused

[aryangelozzi]

Now I’m more confused whether my father is INTJ or ISTJ 😂

[WackadoodleMalarkey]

Intj has the _omae wa mou shindeiru_ doorslam double edged sword

[mseishun]

My mom is ISTJ while I'm INTJ. We argue about a lot of things. Now that we are older I try to explain properly on how I see things to her. She's slowly accepting the way I think now. I'm also trying to respect her opinions although I don't agree with her almost all of the time.

[oshaderp]

Im still stuck on things since I go with all these things in the video though lol

[tamaraaelbrecht]

As an ISTJ I feel often not understood. Don't know anybody with the same type. 😥 And yes I have difficulties with saying no and taking take of myself first in stead of others.

[teamcanaloficial]

Bruh i Identify with both personalities points on the video so still don't know if I'm an INTJ or an ISTJ, can i be both? Xd

[oohbootiga]

Very rare, but I actually scored as both of these types. Trying to figure out what it means

[reggi]

I'm still not sure ugh :( I got ISTJ a lot at first and I related to what the personality type is a lot but recently ive gotten more and more results saying im an INTJ and so I've been looking for differences and similarities bewtween the type and in some factors I relate heaviliy with ISTJ and in some points i see myself being more an ISTJ. Do you know if it's possible to be both or kind of like in between the two states? I mean it kinda wouldn't make sense because of the cognitive functions but I'm curious if you maybe know if theres still a way to be both.
