An insightful journey into personality
ENFPs are enthusiastic, open minded people full of potential. They have wide-ranging interests and share a passion for novelty. Often the life of the party, enthusiasm sets them apart and their presence is easily felt. Their charm is evident and they conduct themselves effectively in meetings, conferences and other networking situations. They are always on the lookout for promising ideas and to network with new and interesting people. They strive for personal authenticity and display admirable versatility in a world in which they have managed to connect the dots. They work well with people and ideas because of their view that everything is part of a whole.
They are forceful and vigorous, encouraging others to adopt their approach, and assisting people in exploring their creative talents.
ENFPs communicate their zest for life to their environment and circle of friends. Their enthusiasm rubs off like pollen, motivating and inspiring, and helping friends and colleagues sustain their drive.
While ENFPs excel at motivating others, they may lack the necessary focus to complete projects of their own; ENFPs need people in their lives to remind them to finish what they start.
Despite the encouragement and support they provide others, their need for independence and autonomy may prevent them from seeking help when they need it themselves. ENFPs will benefit from friends that notice when they are going through a rough patch.
Performing the same activities gets tedious fast, and ENFPs don't like to busy themselves with mundane organizational procedures.
ENFPs prefer work that requires a comprehensive understanding of business activities, and if they are to remain happy in their jobs, there should be a diverse, broad range of projects.
ENFPs have a preference for challenging and creative assignments and are always looking for ways to express themselves.
Their favorite careers are those where situations change regularly, and events happen frequently.
ENFPs often lose patience completing tasks that require attention to detail, and they may altogether avoid jobs that demand too much precision. Careers in finance, engineering, and software development can prove tiring and stressful and are not ordinarily the ENFP's first choice.
As mentioned, ENFPs dislike monotonous duties and are known to keep postponing them. If they don't have the patience for some minor task, they may skip it altogether. In situations where ordinary, repetitious tasks are unavoidable, ENFPs may need a colleague or an aide to step in to lend a hand.
Some occupations demand modes of behaviour that are outside your natural preferences. As such, some career paths may not mesh well with your type, and may not be the best match for you.
