Do you identify as an INFJ Myers-Briggs personality type? Do you seem to have a problem with being uncertain or doubting yourself? Maybe you are afraid of making mistakes?
Here’s 8 Possible Reasons INFJ Personality Types Doubt Themselves…
INFJs…
1 ARE THE RAREST PERSONALITY TYPE-
Of the 16 personality types, INFJs are the rarest, so it might be easy to fall into doubting themselves. They operate differently than 98% of the population.
2 CAN FORECAST THE FUTURE-
INFJs usually have the uncanny ability to predict future events—and sometimes months or years before they actually occur. In fact, many INFJs can feel the energy of their twin flame way before knowing who they are. No wonder they question themselves.
3 ARE TELEPATHIC-
INFJs tend to pick up others’ unexpressed thoughts and feelings. That means they can often detect even the slightest dishonesty hidden under niceness or if something about someone doesn’t feel right. Until INFJs see actual evidence of it, they might doubt themselves.
4 WANT TO KEEP THE PEACE-
INFJs usually hate conflict. They will do practically anything to keep the peace, even throw themselves under the bus and give others the benefit of the doubt.
5 ARE HARD ON THEMSELVES-
INFJs tend to strive to be perfect, always looking for things they have done wrong or that need improving. Nothing is ever quite good enough. That can cause anyone to doubt themselves.
Then if an INFJ hasn’t forgiven themselves for their imperfections, the doubting increases. This in turn causes them to feel undeserving or unworthy.
6 NATURALLY ANALYZE EVERYTHING-
INFJs tend to reflect and look at things from all angles before they act. Nothing wrong with that! Doubting themselves appears when they get afraid of making a mistake or not being perfect.
7 EXPRESS THEIR THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS-
INFJs usually need to share their thoughts and feelings, most often with a close friend or by writing. If the INFJ holds in those thoughts and feelings, they can easily spiral down into not only doubting themselves but to the point where they are in a deep depression.
8 ARE EXTREMELY INTUITIVE-
If an INFJ tries to be normal and dumbs down their intuitive ability, they are attempting to cut off their main life’s purpose. As with anyone, there is a tremendous amount of doubt in trying to be someone you are not meant to be.
