INFX

Changing personality? INFP to INFJ? How? Why? Chat GPT gave me a reflective exercise to examine this possible change.

When do I feel deeply moved to act? When It feels right based on my body’s energy level for the task. Before that, checking in with myself and bringing my aweareness between my eyebrows, letting all the possible actions I could do race through my mid. Sometimes using a priority indicator to help analyze and line up the priorities of the day using logistical and systems thinking, plus the algorithmic nature of the priority indicator. 

On a recent decision, did I wait for inner alightnment or plan based on likely outcomes for others? Both. Knowing that my inner alignment would happen if I considered others, I constantly switch between the two, with each thought of others being processed by my feeling to see how or where there is friction.

How have my habits evolved? What new responsibilities make structure feel empowering? I use structured Daily Action Plans and calendars, but they feel overwhelming still and oppressive. It’s helpful for others though, and brings a concrete system for others to follow,and for me to follow to bring consistency. I am learning how to follow inspiration while having the structure, but it means still being restricted by responsibility to the items on the agenda, calendar, I call it tasks and time frames. I want to just be able to play and create all day though, so even though I have the tools to organize, I don’t like to use them or be devoted or obligated to them. I am calmed at work knowing they are there, and when I have to get things done for home, but I need the freedoms to chase butterflies as I see fit as well- it gives me more energy.

In stressful moments do I turn inward or read the room and act outwardly to balance the room. I am constantly reading the room, and acting outwardly, but I’d rather deeply process on my own.

After writing this, I feel mellow. Structure and Intuition can coexist when I have the tools ready, the unpressured alone time to process, and the energy to be able to write, just like this. I need to be able to put my thoughts into words and have my words be heard. In conclusion, I see that I am still leaning towards INFP naturally, but I am able to use scaffolds to think like an INFJ outwardly. I could protect my quiet, reflective alone time more efficiently.
