MBTI-M Personality Type Scale - ISFP
ISFP individuals have a primary lifestyle that focuses on introspection. In this mode, they mainly act based on their own feelings. Their secondary lifestyle is extroverted, mainly receiving external information through the five senses.
The world of ISFP is filled with various sensory possibilities. They are extremely sensitive to the appearance, taste, sound, touch, and smell of things. They have a strong appreciation for art and are likely to become artists in a certain field because they are extremely talented in creating and combining works with sensory impact. They have a set of firm values and will strive to realize these concepts in life. In their chosen work and career, they must have enough freedom to strive for their value-oriented personal goals.
ISFP tend to be quiet and conservative, making them hard to figure out. They are used to hiding their views or ideas and only open up to their closest relatives. In the process of interacting with others, they are often kind, elegant, and sensitive. They are willing to work hard to make others happy and satisfied and will invest a lot of time and energy in tasks they firmly believe in.
ISFP have a strong love for beautiful and glamorous things. They may love animals and have a true appreciation for natural beauty. They are creative and independent and have a certain need for personal space. ISFP will express respect for those who understand them and support them in chasing their dreams in their own special way. Those who do not understand ISFP will think that this special way of theirs is a sign of unrestrained indifference, but ISFP take life very seriously. They continuously collect all kinds of information and filter it with their value system to find true clarity and deep-seated meaning.
ISFP are action-oriented people. They are 'doers' and often show some discomfort with theoretical concepts and viewpoints unless they can see the practical application value behind them. They can achieve the greatest learning effectiveness in a practical operating environment and are often very tired of traditional teaching modes that focus on abstract thinking. They don't like objective analysis and are also tired of making decisions based on careful logical deduction. Their strong value system requires that their decisions be evaluated by their subjective beliefs rather than being scrutinized by objective rules or laws.
ISFP have extremely keen insight into others. They continuously collect information about others and try to discover the true meaning behind the information. Their observation of others is often very penetrating.
ISFP are enthusiastic and compassionate. They are truly caring towards people and have a strong service-oriented consciousness in obtaining happiness. For those who are close to them, they will show extraordinary sincere care, and their expression of love also focuses more on actions than words.
ISFP have no desire to lead or control others, just as they don't want to be led or controlled by others. They need alone time and space to evaluate the current living situation based on their value system. They will also give the same respect to the needs of others for time and space.
ISFP will not be complacent about things they do extremely well. Their firm value system often makes them radical perfectionists and they will judge themselves by some unnecessarily harsh requirements.
ISFP have many special talents, especially in creating artistic masterpieces and selflessly serving others. Due to ISFP's serious attitude towards life, life is not so easy for them, but they have enough ability to make the lives of themselves and those close to them rich and meaningful.
