How i see my self as an INFP

Beberapa hari yang lalu aku iseng-iseng download dan cobain aplikasi test personality (MBTI). Buat yang nggak tahu apa itu MBTI ini penjelasan singkatnya :

"The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is an assessment that is believed to measure psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions.  According to the Myers-Briggs test, there are 16 different types of personalities. The test consists of a series of questions, and your answers determine what type of personality you have and provides general assumptions about how your personality type is best suited for success in terms of careers, communication, etc."

Sebenarnya aku udah pernah cobain tes ini sebelumnya tapi karna keisengan + curiosity mana tahu hasilnya bisa berubah sewaktu-waktu kan. Ya, basic on quote kalau people’s change like a season? Tapi hasilnya menunjukkan kalau aku masih seorang INFP. Aku nggak tahu it is good thing or not? But anyway, katanya populasi INFP di dunia cuma 4% jadi mungkin aku termasuk orang dengan kepribadian yang unik? LOL

Then how i see my self as an INFP ?

“INFP personalities are true idealists, always looking for the hint of good in even the worst of people and events, searching for ways to make things better. While they may be perceived as calm, reserved, or even shy, INFPs have an inner flame and passion that can truly shine. Comprising just 4% of the population, the risk of feeling misunderstood is unfortunately high for the INFP personality type – but when they find like-minded people to spend their time with, the harmony they feel will be a fountain of joy and inspiration.”

Well, I dont really know about this but i m gonna say yeah im kinda idealist person. I think i can write a book about my principles of life. And hell yeah people often misunderstood my self and i often felt like nobody understand how i felt. Lately i met some INFPs and overwhelming how similiar us.

“At their best, these qualities enable INFPs to communicate deeply with others, easily speaking in metaphors and parables, and understanding and creating symbols to share their ideas.”

I’ve often felt like people didn’t understand what i was saying cause i loved using metaphors and when people asked me what it means, I’m too tired to explain it so i just let it go and said nevermind.

"Listen to Many People, but Talk to Few"

I thought everyone did the same thing right? Or is it just me?

Here's INFP Weekness

Too Idealistic – INFPs often take their idealism too far, setting themselves up for disappointment as, again and again, evil things happen in the world. (I'm idealistic person but open-minded too. I’m always trying to not forced other to be my self.)

Too Altruistic – INFPs sometimes see themselves as selfish, but only because they want to give so much more than they are able to. This becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, as they try to push themselves to commit to a chosen cause or person, forgetting to take care of the needs of others in their lives, and especially themselves. (This absolutely wrong. I rarely forget to take care other I thought.)

Impractical – When something captures INFPs’ imagination, they can neglect practical matters like day-to-day maintenance and simple pleasures. Sometimes people with the INFP personality type will take this asceticism so far as to neglect eating and drinking as they pursue their passion or cause. (This exactly not my self. I never neglect drinking or eating time even i picky eater lol)

Dislike Dealing With Data – INFPs are often so focused on the big picture that they forget the forest is made of individual trees. INFPs are in tune with emotions and morality, and when the facts and data contradict their ideals, it can be a real challenge for them. (I’m really agree with this. I really hate when someone bring me data especially the data doesn’t compatible with what i thought before)

Take Things Personally – INFPs often take challenges and criticisms personally, rather than as inspiration to reassess their positions. (I thought everyone hate critics even they claims their self as an open-minded.)

Difficult to Get to Know – INFPs are private, reserved and self-conscious. This makes them notoriously difficult to really get to know, and their need for these qualities contributes to the guilt they often feel for not giving more of themselves to those they care about. (I dont know about this one but my friends should be.)

Here's INFP Career Path

“First and foremost is seemingly every INFPs’ dream growing up – to become an author. While a novel is a classic choice, it is rarely an accessible one, and there are many viable options for freedom-loving INFPs.”

Okay, I thought my closest friends already found out that my dream is going to be an author even i never speak out about it directly but they knew i love writing. So, I'm happy that recommend job for INFP is an author hahah althought i dont reallly know if i m good at it or not.

"INFP Colleagues :INFPs feel most comfortable among colleagues – they aren’t interested in controlling others, and have a similar distaste for being controlled. Among their colleagues, INFPs will feel freer to share their ideas, and while they may maintain some psychological distance, they will make every effort to be pleasant, friendly and supportive – so long as their coworkers reciprocate. INFPs don’t like conflict or picking sides, and will do everything they can to maintain harmony and cooperation."

I always tried to be neutral person and sometimes i dont understand why people are arguing frequently over small things. 

Thats all. So, what you thought about your MBTI test or have you been you tried it before?
If you dont, maybe you should go and download it on playstore.
