For example, when doing the workbook excercises we think about what we wanted to be as a kid. Now I remember that at some point as a child I started to write a book but threw it away later because I thought it was stupid. Oh my. Now I realize that I enjoy writing here a lot and then I read that big writers are mostly INFPs. Crazy. Maybe I will write a book one day.
However, I do not like writing job applications. The reason for that is also the INFP personality: "INFPs have very high standards and are perfectionists. Consequently, they are usually hard on themselves, and don't give themselves enough credit."
How can someone who thinks she is not good enough be great in a job interview? I tend to be very open about my faults and things I am not good at or that I do not know. But I am also a fan of the growth mindset in the sense of Carol Dweck. This means that it is not terrible to not know something, it is a chance to discover and learn something new. Learning is development and for me, development towards something new or better is like breathing.
I just LOVE this personality discovery!
