I am an INFP...strongest score, intuitive.
Introverted: 78%............Intuitive: 88%..............Feeling: 62%..........Perceiving: 56%
The introversion seems to rate high, but I've spent many years in work that primarily revolves around people (eg nursing being the main occupation)...I have no difficulty relating and interacting with people....socially I've done (and do) okay, perhaps a little shy at first.
The intuitive I believe is accurate; (however the legal and professional validity of this test I believe is questionable). I do have a greatly developed sense of the intuitive, people, animals etc.
I certainly do have a sense of wonder about the world (it is so beautiful)...and consider myself an optimistic type of person.
How has my personality affected my property investing? I am possessed with huge curiousity and desire to learn, I soak up everything you all say (and may not say...
), I can relate to people very well, that helps when you deal with finance, builders, real estate people....agents! property managers, tenants!!
I like to solve/resolve any problems that may come our way. I love to learn from them. (I'm learning something from this right now).
I have bought property that I consider good deals, we have built in what I consider a great area...we reap the equity and growth and continue to buy and build....*judging* would be the equivalent of tying half my brain and legs up, I like to play with the hows and wheres and can we, I don't like to be judging people/stuff and it kinda offends me somewhat when people do judge others, that's difficult to explain....(hence I found some of the posts on this forum offensive at times, over the years-my problem) ..and no I'm not a bleeding heart, I can stand my ground very solidly, I have also been whitewashed with stubborness.
Apparently INFP's are a very small (but wonderful
) part of the population, I am very aware that the majority of people do not think or act like me.
My nursing
is a very suited occupation for me...caring for; and working with people, toward a goal; the system of health care I can find very frustrating, but I can make the most, and yet nothing makes me happier than going off and climbing some mountains (literally), or working and training my animals, or just being with kids!
My partner did the test and he is an ESTJ...whatever label we put on ourselves we already know how opposite he and I are...yet it works?!?
I find people fascinating, personalities a maze of wonderment...learning the greatest of enjoyment and property investing a hugely interesting path of challenging myself and skills and a fun road to our financial independence.
There you go. Secret ramblings of an INFP.
