As an INFP who is now completely done trying to fit into the neurotypical working world after decades of trying to do what is recommended in this article, I'm sorry to say that while some of these tips may work in the short run, eventually you will break down. You simply can't fit a square peg in a round hole. It's easier to do this when you are younger, but when you get older, forget it. I believe most INFPs wind up working freelance. I did. Most INFPs are artists and should be encouraged to follow their hearts every step of the way, from as young an age as possible. The money will have to be worked out, and will eventually. If INFPs are brought up with love, warmth, and support, they will succeed.
