Part 4 of MBTI – the Extroverts

ENFJ. Crystal Simeoni, you fall here. Y’all are Fe Ni Se Ti. Your Fe means you put others above all else. You always want to make sure everyone else is happy, you want to take care of them and do right by them. You’re impulsive, coz your Fe acts out decisions before you Ni gathers all the data that you need. Se makes you sensory as well, so you will occasionally seek physical thrills and adventures. And your Ti means you’re good at figuring how stuff works. Maybe that’s why you’re good at learning new languages, coz you can pick the constituent grammar, and you are careful to get them right to please the Fe part that rules you? Just a guess. Here’s some career stuff, here for relationships and some growing tips here.

ENFP… Ne Fi Te Si. Your leading Ne means you are good at ‘reading between the lines’, interpreting symbols and whatnot, so you are good at understanding body language, and often know a lot more than people are telling you. Fi makes you stubborn, you live by your own set of rules. So much as you know what is expected of you, you only do what is right for you. Te makes you a good manager, good at fixing things, organizing projects, and the extrovert in you makes you good with people. You’re an effective and popular boss. Si means you yearn for the past and try to reproduce it through physical experiences and memories – buying an old perfume, or an outfit that reminds you of a special time in your life. Career advice here, relationship data here, and here, go plant a tree.

ENTP …that’s Ne Ti Fe Si. You’re a lot like the one above, except more distant, because of the Ti. Figuring how stuff works means you spend a lot of time inside your own head, so you’re not as outgoing as ENFP. You read symbols too, which makes you good at interacting with people. The Fe promotes this, and draws you to strangers, you want to reach them and bring them out of themselves. Si means you look into the past for your peace of mind. Careers here, relationships here, and grab a shovel.

ENTJ … none that I know of, but please do the test and let me know if I know you. Te Si Ne Fi. You’re the ultimate leader, always sorting everything for everyone, guiding others hands-on and leading by example. You like things in order, on schedule and in time. Si makes you prefer the systems that are already in place, and innovation doesn’t jazz you. If it’s not broken, no need to fix it. Ne means you can read your underlings fairly well, but Fi means you focus on having your way rather than theirs, so you can be a bit of a bully. Careers here, relationships here, environmental matters here.

ESTP is for Se Ti Fe Ni. You guys are ruled by sensory pleasure, everything else comes second. If it is logical and fun, you will do it, and damn the consequences. The wilder and crazier the better, adrenalin rush is like the ultimate for you, pushing your body to its limits. Ti means you know how stuff works, so you’re probably good at stuff like driving and boating and flying and whatnot. Fe means you like to do right by people, so you’re sensitive to an extent, and Ni gives you an understanding of people’s inner conflicts. You get people, when you take the time to, and can be a good listener. Careers here, heart here, and Karura here.

ESFP is Se Fi Te Ni, and in some ways is like the above. Equally thrill seeking, more self oriented, because of the Fi. Better at planning stuff and slightly less spontaneous, because of the Te, and just as good a listener when it suits you. Generally louder than ESTP, because you’re more focused on you. Career advice here, relationship info here, and green thumbs available here.

ESFJ … Fe Si Ne Ti. Primarily people centred, you’re pretty friendly and outgoing. Si makes you a traditionalist, you prefer the old school. Ne makes you good at seeing what’s beneath people’s words and actions, while Ti helps you figure out the whys and wherefores of worldly things. The Fe that makes you put others before yourself and the Si that makes you follow set conventions is what makes you a nice, organized J. Careers here, mush here, trees here.

ESTJ… you’re Te Si Fe Ni. You’re primarily a Te, an organizer, which makes you a born leader. Being a T also means you favour logic over emotion, so you are effective and objective. Your Fe makes you concerned about others, and about doing what is right, so you have a reasonably alert conscience, and your Ni gives you instincts though they are weak and fallible. Your career advice is here, these are your flowers of choice, and here is how you handle intimacy.

Honestly, I could go on for hours, but I think this is enough for a start. If this makes no sense to you, well, you’re human. It took me six months and counting just to get this far. It’s enough to do the test, know your type, and use the green links to beat your weakneses. And then, if you like, you can make your pals take the test and read their links for leakage. Makes life so much easier when how know how to deal with whom and why they act the way they do. That’s a skill I’m still learning.
