Being an ENFP is both a blessing and a curse. Most of the time, I wouldn't be anything else, for it can be a really "fun" temperament type. I often know what someone is going to say next well before they even begin to speak. I can fill in the awkward, quiet times at social gatherings effortlessly, though I take little pleasure in small talk, and much prefer emotional intimacy and depth. And I can usually get people to relax and open up to me, though I don't do this for devious ends. But there are times when I think this temperament type extracts more than its pound of flesh, particularly in the grownup world of business, where many jobs are repetitious, heavily structured and with a fixed routine. Also, feeling like one is on the outside looking in can be hard to deal with at times. And what ENFP hasn't been lonely in a crowd, almost as though one were outside oneself, watching from afar?
提示病房提供处理强调ENFPs are right on the money, I think. When I'm mildly to moderately stressed, I'm not always aware of it until later, and I'm certainly not aware of what I need for myself and from others at the time. But when I'm relaxed, as now, I can see that her suggestions for what ENFPs need in order to manage stress are just what I need to get my footing again. I'll simply add that we ENFPs tend to be hypercritical of ourselves, so it's not necessary for others to be too critical. We know when we're in the wrong, though we can and often do come up with excuses that can appease others. Doing so ultimately causes an ENFP to feel like a fraud, though, and this is a temperament type that demands one be true to oneself.
