If you’re new to Geek Psychology, my name is Matt Sherman. People call me Sherman. I'm a personality type expert, life coach, hypnotist, author, podcaster, and course creator. I help mainly INFPs embrace their unique strengths and navigate life's challenges. Through practical strategies and deep insights, I aim to help people like you live a more fulfilling and authentic live where you can wake up and feel good about who you are and your impact on the world. The INFP is a highly imaginative and idealistic personality type, with a great deal of innovative, conceptual, and artistic potential. They spend lots of time lost in their own imagination and internal world, which may at first seem detached or far away. Their unusually rich internal life allows them to excel at creative problem solving, but it also means that sometimes they can miss the big picture. They can become so absorbed by the inner workings of their imagination that they lose touch with their surroundings entirely. When this happens, it may feel to others as if the INFP has disappeared from sight.
But because of how our miond works, we actually have a secret INFP advantage.
You wrote “be your own cheerleader.”
Actually, Eben Pagan who I talked about earlier,
his wife is Annie Lalla, who I've mentioned.
She's an INFP.
They both did like a group coaching program that I got a certificate / certified in.
She says that like when you're making a decision to imagine all of your past and future selves,
like sitting in the audience and you're on stage.
What would you have to do to make all of them clap and be happy?
*and people you look up to.
We have an advantage, you know, as INFPs, because we do this anyway.
We haven't personified a lot of these parts,
but we do, we sift through, like, does does this feel right to me?
And then, we, we pass around the question and the answer
to all of our different parts to try to find what aligns and resonates the most.
And seeing different versions of yourself doing it or applauding for you,
I think, is maybe a little hack for it.
And that's what I do with the cognitive functions.
What does my Explorer (Ne) want me to do? What does my Commander (Te) want me to do?
What can I do here?
