Check out the Evolve Community at http://evolve.geekpsychology.com INFPs have one of the richest inner worlds of any personality type. That's a real strength. But that same depth creates a specific gap between who you are on the inside and what your life actually looks like from the outside. In this video I draw out that gap, walk through what's underneath it, and explain why more self-awareness and planning alone won't get you to the other side. We also get into the identity shift that's actually required, the neurological levels model, and the one question that helps INFPs start moving. #INFP #CognitiveFunctions #INFPPersonalityType 0:00 Your inner world is rich. Your outer life hasn't caught up. 2:00 Drawing the gap — you, the pit, and the future version of you 6:00 Why planning and self-awareness won't get you across 8:00 The identity shift required to bridge it 11:30 The question that actually moves INFPs forward
