I hate being a INFP. INFP's suck!

ESTJ's on the other hand.. I've never met a ESTJ that I didn't love from day one They are simply amazing, and they're the real ones holding up this damn planet. Without ESTJ's in my life, telling us all what to do and how, then the human race wouldn't exist. God created them to be the best.

I'm gonna start working to become a ESTJ. I've joined a gym so I can be more sporty, I'm trying to learn how to small talk better so I can go to parties, get drunk, and talk about the weather! I'm trying to improve my time management as well, and I've already created a plan on my wall that organises how I should spend every hour of my week. Whoops, I should go out for a jog round about now! I'm going to wear a suit today, and try to be very serious and professional about my life. Actually, I'm going to wear a suit every day! No day off for an awesome ESTJ!

ESTJ's = better than you

Fern and I were discussing recently how INFPs need to develop their ESTJ side. So if we can do this without losing all the sensitivity and good stuff about being INFP, then it's probably going to be a good thing all round I'd say.

Whether we like it or not, the world *is* run according to an ESTJ agenda and we need to deal with it. The sooner we stop whinging about it and figure out how we are going to work with it the better it will be all round (for society and for us as individuals). We can sit on our arses for years introspecting about how unfair it is that the world doesn't understand us but doing that will achieve nothing apart from making us feel worse.

So we're sensitive and idealistic. Big deal. INFPs who choose to harness their positive qualities and authentically put them to good use can grow into a force to be reckoned with (irrespective of whether they operate in an ESTJ world or not).

BLASPHEMY!

I do need to improve my Te though. I think the last time I took the cognitive functions test, it came out as "unused"! And my Si score wasn't much better.

Note to self: Must harness power of the dark side.

I LOVE being INFP. ESTJs are... ok

I think I do all the things you just listed. But I would love to see ESTJ trying to be touchy feely rainbows and unicorns intuitive.

Of course, it stands to reason that if INFPs need to develop their ESTJ side, then ESTJs need to develop their INFP side too. Good luck to whoever feels like convincing them of this though

INFP's need a well develped ESTJ to achieve their daydreams. You can either look around for some ESTJ who wants to help you (very unlikely, as they have their own agenda) or develop your own.

Can ESTJs do this and be believable?:



I think not.

Haha you guys are too serious.

I did make this thread before noon on the 1st of April

Howay man, I know but I had some serious points I wanted to make about INFPs/ESTJs anyway and was too lazy to start my own thread about it, so nicked yours instead. So, fool back atcha!

Darn it...someone told me that it wasn't April Fool's day today, but that it had been officially moved to April 2nd.

Repeat "I may, I may, I may increase my J!" while flapping your arms in a silly manner.

The phrases below may also help you:
Oh yes! Oh yes! I will improve my S!
Yippee yippee I'd like to be an E!
Why yes, I would like some T thank you. Two sugars.

Welcome to the world of ESTJ.

How to be an ESTJ (Executive Saves The Job)
Expect everyone to gather round and look to you for leadership.
Summon your minions.
Tell them what to do and how to do it.
Juggle career, family, hobbies, and personal life so that you get more accomplished in a day than a dozen normal humans

How to be an INFP (I Never Finish Projects):
Introspect all day.
Neglect deadlines.
Find interesting patterns on the dirty dishes.
Play around with words or art or music.

I want to be an ESTJ.
I want to learn to think and work.
I want to ride o'er the roads and the highways
To my job with many a perk.

I want to hear the ‘NFPs howlin'
As the sun sets in the West.
I want to be an ESTJ
The life I love the best.

I want to drive a car, get it somewhat new.
I want to have money in the bank,
On the road to success and privilege,
Even have gas in the tank.

I want to pillow my head in the biggest house
While the moon shines down from above.
I get up before the dawn and a-yodel a dee hee,
Oh that's the life I love.

(to the tune of “I Want to Be a Cowboy’s Sweetheart”)

Heheh...that was awesome. Is it your creation, Fern?

You think that was a nasty April Fools Joke? I had a girl I know tell everyone she was engaged. When I was hoping I'd get to date her in the future.

INFP, 4w5 sx/sp

I love these things, the only other one like it I've seen is INFJ (I'm Not F*cking Joking!).

lol, Light Speed you're horrible! (a compliment)

I had cut a picture of some dying old granny from newspaper, my asquaintance from the school had freaked out when she saw the devilish looking woman first time, but she literally screamed when I had taped it to wednesday's paper

After that she confiscated the "evil fetish"
