  • Why Do Some INFPs Create While Others Stay Stuck

    I used to spend endless hours in my head, overthinking every detail of my creative ideas. Each idea seemed more perfect and exciting than the last, but they never saw the light of day.


    As an INFP, I realized that my extraverted intuition made me savor the novelty of ideas, but it also trapped me in a cycle of inaction. I knew I wasn't alone—many of us INFPs see the potential in our ideas but are held back by the fear of imperfection.


    I decided that it was time to break free from this cycle. I learned to embrace imperfection and realized that taking action on my ideas creates more opportunities and satisfaction than keeping them locked in my mind. The truth hit me: imperfect action beats perfect inaction every time.


    I began setting shorter deadlines for myself, which pushed me to take action and not let my ideas go to waste. If you're facing the same struggles, I urge you to take that first step. Share your creativity with the world, and don't be afraid of it being less than perfect. Every creation is a building block to growth and fulfillment.

    Ever feel like you're chasing a moving target with self-development? Like you're trying to do everything right but just not making meaningful progress?


    Many INFPs tell me that they just don't know how to maintain consistency, motivation, and clarity.


    In this video, I dive into why traditional self-help advice often misses the mark and how shifting your perspective can unlock genuine growth. It's not about quick fixes or forcing yourself into a mold that doesn't fit. It's about understanding your unique operating system and working with it, not against it.


    I'll share a different way to approach personal growth, one that feels less like a chore and more like an adventure. We'll explore why chasing external metrics of success can leave you feeling empty and how to tap into what truly motivates you.


    If you're tired of the self-help hamster wheel and ready for a more authentic path to growth, this video is for you.

  • INFPs fear following their soul (heres why)
    Jun 22 2025

    FREE 5-Day INFP Personality Type Course: http://geekpsychology.com/infp-5day


    I used to think playing it safe was the answer.


    Every day, I’d wake up and feel my dreams slipping away.


    I told myself I was being practical, but I was really just afraid.


    Then one day, I realized the “safe” path was killing my spirit.


    Here’s what happened when I finally listened to my Soul.


    I spent years in jobs that didn’t fit, numbing my goals with mindless scrolling.


    My Guardian told me to stay put, but my Soul screamed for more.


    The moment I left the “village,” I felt terrified—and alive.


    I failed, stumbled, doubted myself, but each step was data, not defeat.


    Now, I help others leave their own comfort zone, because regret is the real risk.


    The world needs your gifts, not your compliance.


    What’s one “safe” choice you’re questioning right now?
