Hey guys my name is Lydia and I recently retook the Myers Briggs test because it came up in
conversation and I was curious as to what my result would be because I haven't taken it in a
while. And I'm so happy I took that test because now everything makes sense. It literally makes
sense now why no one will ever fully get me. You know what, it's fine. Everything is fine. I'm ok
with being a one-woman show for the rest of my life. So I'm here to give you what you came for.
I usually do videos that are more philosophical and motivating people to pursue creative careers
but this one is kind of interesting and I just really wanted to film this so I hope you enjoy.
Anyways, so here's the real tea on how it is to live with one of the rarest personality types
in the world and boyy it is not easy. You see female INTJs we have major serial killer energy
or I guess serial killers don't really have much energy and that's what makes them serial killers.
Yeah this is exactly the sort of sh*t an INTJ person would say but anyways people think that
we don't have emotion, we're narcissistic, we're brats, we're super intelligent but we're brats all
the same, and I am here to confirm that it's true. All of the above it's true. You see as an INTJ
my version of fun is giving myself work and that is why I am a chronic workaholic that's also why
I filmed a chronic workaholic's tips for time management video because it is my thing. Like I
love to just keep adding things to my itinerary because you know 24 hours in a day. How can we
make the most use of this? It has gotten to the point where I am trying to start my own business,
DJing, working on producing music. I have four jobs now you guys.
Four jobs. And I'm going to start school again in January so I don't know which one I'm going to try
to cut out of the equation cause to be honest I would rather do the jobs and not do school
but you know I'll get my degree. But even with all of these things that I've added to my life,
I am not completely satisfied. Literally last week I was having a freak out moment and I was like,
"Wow I am only working 25 hours a week, I need to make more money and work more."
So, within one week I got three more jobs. Like this isn't normal. To me this is normal
but as I'm saying this out loud I'm starting to realize how weird this is all sounding and
I understand now that in my videos I might seem kind of pushy and like, "Come on you can do
it!" Trust me everything I say is just because I have this personality type and to me this makes a
lot of sense. So take whatever I say with a grain of salt in my videos but I guess this
video is explaining why I'm like this and my real personality. I think the funniest thing is how
female INTJs are in social situations cause first of all when I was reading up on the INTJ
I was like, "This is so spot on." We like having a uniform so I mean come on, all black all the time.
On the website I was reading it literally said that INTJs usually just wear a monochromatic,
black look or grey look. So maybe grey will be my new thing? We'll see maybe on day I'll
have all grey hair and all grey outfits, I think that could be kind of cool. We're very organized
people. We like having a uniform, but another interesting thing especially for female INTJs,
is that the INTJ personality on its own is a very masculine type of personality. And this is exactly
why we have the rarest personality type in the world if we're female because people don't assume
that most women would have these characteristics. For example when I am in a meeting, I just feel
like I need to be the one who is the leader and saying all these things and I hate being told
what to do. And I'm not saying all me are like this but there is a tendency. You know there is
quite a positive correlation but for some reason female INTJs are on more of that masculine side.
That's probably also why I didn't really do well in an all-women environment working wise. I
just... it's so petty. So dramatic. A lot of times working with a lot of females or women means that
your conversations have a bit of like emotional burns. Tssss. It's a lot but with guys you can
be straight up. And also I love personally that I work with basically just men right now because
who else am I going to play competitive foosball with at the office? Party situations are also
very funny. Besides for the work environment and tending to like to be around more guys than girls
ouff...my social interactions sometimes are hilarious. Ok time is very important for me
and if I feel like you will be a waste of my time, you're a waste of my time and I won't
spend time with you. Uhh this makes me sound like an awful person but that's just the way I think.
So for example, if I show up to a gathering (this actually kind of happened recently)
four friends, I was friends with one of them, they wanted to go shopping and I was like,
"Cool, I need to meet new people cause of covid this will be a great opportunity."
Immediately we sit in the car and they're playing country music and I was like, "Absolutely not." So
right off the bat I knew that we weren't going to vibe because I just I'm a techno person. Country
music from Canada is not really my thing. We get to the store and it's kind of bad but all their
phrases, like everything they were talking about to me seemed so insignificant. Who cares what
filter you put on your Instagram story? I just knew I wasn't going to vibe with these people.
It was so embarrassing but I literally called my friend who I was supposed to hang out with
way later that night and I was like, "Can you come here now?" And she was like, "No but you can say
that you need to come to my place." So that's what I did. So I only hung out with those people for
25 minutes and then I never saw them again. It's actually really interesting but in schools,
like in classrooms, I will sit down and spend the first day of class kind of analyzing the room.
Don't get freaked out if you're friends with me. I've definitely done this with you and that's why
we're friends. But what happens on the first day of class is I will sit down, analyze everybody
and I'll be like that person. That person is going to be my best friend for the year. And
seriously this happens 99% of the time. It's just like, I don't know if it's a gift. I don't know
if it's manifestation that I'm manifesting these friends because I'll only put effort into them
if I'm like, "You have cool style. I f*ck with that." No it's not only what you wear. It's not
physical appearance. There's just like this energy that I can really feel off of people and I don't
really know if that's the INTJ personality type or just me being a kind of strange individual.
Like of course, of course I would have a channel on Youtube that's about deep chats
in all black. Like of course an INTJ person would come up with this. So that being said,
that was my rundown on how it is to really live like as an INTJ. Clearly it's problematic and it's
obviously going to cause me a lot of issues in the future. Which is why I'm such a fan of promoting
pursuing your own career because maybe you just have the personality type that's more dominant
or more in a leader position or more analytical. And uh yeah welcome to the club of people who are
the most annoying employees in the workplace. So yeah I hope this video was interesting for
you guys. If you are an INTJ please let me know. We can be friends because we are the only people
who will understand each other fully. And of course, I'll see you in the next video.
