The world we live in is nuanced and layered. People from all walks of life journey and connect in different ways. As humans, we all have different personalities from each other and deal with situations differently. During World War II, Myers and Briggs began researching and developing an indicator that could be utilized to help understand individual differences. They created assessments which identified 16 ‘personality’ types.

What Does INFJ Stand For?

INFJ is one of the sixteen personality types. INFJ is an acronym for the personality traits of Introversion, iNtuition, Feeling, and Judging. The INFJ type is also called the “Counselor”/ “Advocate” and is described as an idealistic, compassionate, and sensitive personality type. People with INFJ personalities are creative, gentle, and caring. 

INFJ’s are usually reserved and highly sensitive to how others feel. They are typically idealistic, with high moral standards and a strong focus on the future. INFJ’s enjoy thinking about deep topics and contemplating the meaning of life. The INFJ type is said to be one of the rarest personality type with just one to three percent of the population exhibiting this personality type.

Each of the four letters of the INFJ acronym signifies a key personality trait of this type. INFJs are energized by time alone (Introverted), focus on ideas and concepts rather than facts and details (iNtuitive), make decisions based on feelings and values (Feeling), and prefer to be planned and organized rather than spontaneous and flexible (Judging).
