INFP？ Introduction to encyclopedia

INFP's worldview is too idealistic, and it is difficult for them to be satisfied in real life. Their requirements for the real world are very high in the eyes of others. The standards they yearn for between people, society, country and the world are extremely lofty. They don't seem to have a satisfactory standard for the pursuit of the ideal world. Perhaps this standard is clear or vague, but they usually consider which one will be more perfect and noble.

Usually, INFP people have experienced some mental or physical trauma when they are young. Perhaps from a certain perspective, INFP is an unnatural MBTi personality, which may be distorted into INFP because of the shadow of childhood. In the eyes of others, these traumatic experiences may not be very serious and will not have a profound impact on INFP, but for them, these traumatic experiences are indelible in their hearts. These sad fragments will always grow with them and hang over INFP's mind like shadows for the rest of their lives. INFP has a sensitive heart and is very sensitive to the outside world. A breeze and a ray of light from the external environment will easily touch the innocent little heart of an INFP child. Being too sensitive to external things and people will make INFP easy to think and guess whether others are targeting themselves. INFP pays attention to what others think of them and thinks about whether there are outsiders in it. Although in the eyes of others, INFP has not suffered any injury or suffering in its experience, the introverted and sensitive INFP will keep his own injury in mind and often think of it. In addition, INFP is used to paying attention to the inner world and ignoring what happens in the outer world. So this sense of hurt will be deeply engraved in their souls, aggravating their sadness. This feeling is accompanied by INFP's life journey, so INFP's worldview is more gloomy than bright, and their understanding and views on this world will naturally tend to be pessimistic. They feel that life is a tragedy and feel sorry and sad for their situation.

When INFP grows up, they will explore themselves, and they have an idea in their hearts: Who am I? Why do I experience pain? where am I going? Why can't I be happy living in this world? INFP will feel that its experience is unhappy and unhappy, and this unpleasant sense of music will always remain in INFP's heart and will be aggravated by long-term self-suggestion. However, the happiness brought by the life they experienced in reality is insignificant to INFP, as if these happiness can't make up for their sad experience at all, nor can they fill their lack of happy souls. INFP can hardly get real happiness and beautiful experience in reality. They will instinctively throw themselves into their inner world, where they can freely build a beautiful world that can make them happy. In this beautiful world built by imagination, it must be a hundred times more ideal than the real world. Only in this way can INFP truly experience happiness. However, what is really tragic to outsiders is that INFP people miss the experience and enjoy the real world, and they still focus on the illusory idealized world.

INFP thought he was an injured person in his childhood. Because of empathy, they naturally show sympathy for the weak, sad and painful people. Their inner grief communicates with the outside world, which will produce noble qualities such as kindness, compassion and love. In INFP's idealized world, their human compatriots are perfect. INFP will be modeled on the real world. On this model, they will imagine how to make human beings live a better life. First of all, the society of this world is a superior society with perfect system. People in this society have a good quality of life, and people live a happy and free life. No exploitation, no dark groups, no demons. In the imaginary world, INFP thinks it is great. INFP believes that it has established an ideal and beautiful world for the people at the bottom of society who have suffered and pitied. They advocate equality between people and hope that each individual can freely pursue his own happiness and happiness. In INFP's consciousness, the world has already got rid of the shackles that bind human beings, and the social system and culture are people-oriented.

Influenced by their idealism, INFP will become a person with noble moral quality. They care about the fate of mankind, deeply love their fellow human beings, and hope that they can save this gloomy world and fight those demonic people by any means. However, INFP is sensitive, kind, compassionate and fragile at heart, and they are generally not good at interacting with people in the real world. INFP doesn't want to destroy its idealization and get in touch with those "imperfect" people in reality. Their thoughts are noble, but they unconsciously find that people in reality are often selfish, ignorant, vulgar and vulgar. INFP will hate those who can't realize their wishes, but at the same time sympathize with them. In reality, it is difficult for INFP to meet people with similar ideas, so INFP is unwilling to communicate with people with big differences in ideas, which will make INFP appear quiet, withdrawn and easily frustrated in the crowd. They are willing to stay alone, but helplessly continue to run that illusory dream.

INFP is the most idealized of all types.

INFP is particularly sensitive and has a deep feeling for things. Some INFP people are so absorbed in the spiritual world that they don't care much about worldly things and the elements that make up daily life. INFP looks quiet and easy-going, but when we uncover their quiet appearance, what we see is an uneasy heart. They are deeply and enthusiastically concerned about a few special people or their favorite cause, and their most urgent wish is to restore peace to the world and complete themselves and their loved ones. Once they think they have succumbed to the temptation of impurity, they will be desperate to devote themselves to self-sacrifice and atonement. They may make a wrong judgment or evaluation of the facts, but in the face of emotions, they are like sharpshooters, who hit almost every shot.

INFP is meticulous and meticulous. They can listen to other people's ideas well and calm the waves in people's hearts. Although they may be a little conservative in emotional expression, they have a strong concern for others and will try their best to understand their feelings.

But if you have an INFP boss, or if your work is closely related to the interests of an INFP person, he will become very controlling. Like other types of perception (P), INFP won't realize that you have influenced him until the moment when it really happens; Coupled with the introversion of INFP, they will try to avoid direct conflict with others. This may confuse both sides: for you, you are blamed but don't know why, because he has never communicated his opinions with you before; For INFP, even he himself will feel that his feelings and reactions are too sudden and exciting.

If you offend INFP's value system (remember, you won't know unless the facts are very obvious), it is very difficult to get INFP's forgiveness, provided that they are willing to forgive you. The "I" and "F" side of INFP makes them show indifference under any circumstances. INFP said "it doesn't matter" and "it doesn't matter", but in fact, getting their forgiveness is not as easy as it seems. If an EJ makes a mistake and apologizes, INFP will give him a typical INFP answer of "Never mind" and "Never mind". EJ naively thought it was nothing, but it wasn't.
