Does the idea of change excite you and give you a rush of stimulation? Does the notion of change make you feel like locking yourself in your room, never to open the door? Different personality types respond to change in different ways!
ENFPs and Change
Change is an exciting word for ENFPs. They are fond of variety, so going somewhere new, trying their hand at a new skill, or being around a new set of people piques their curiosity.
INFPs and Change
INFPs need a little time alone to reflect on changes and figure out whether the changes align with their values and desires. They hate feeling pushed or pressured into anything without having a chance to ruminate on it.
INTPs and Change
Change can be very exciting for INTPs. These types are typically flexible and willing to take smart risks. They can become easily bored by everyday, repetitive experiences and enjoy the challenge involved with change. As introverts, however, INTPs need time alone to process the change before giving an immediate response.
ENFJs and Change
Ever planful and future-focused, ENFJs are initially excited about change. In fact, they are one of seven personality types most likely to be excited by change. They enjoy working over the details involved in a change and getting on board with planning and implementation.
ENTJs and Change
Decisive and analytical, ENTJs enjoy the challenge and possibility that change provides. They are usually quick to question the logic of the change to make sure it is sound. They need time to envision where the change will lead in the future, and they will appreciate being able to discuss this with others.
INFJs and Change
INFJs can have mixed reactions to change. While they enjoy being able to toy with a new vision or idea for the future, they can feel hesitant if they see implications that could be negative.
INTJs and Change
Long-term planning is a gift of the INTJ personality type. They can be excited by change, but they need time to figure out their strategy and predict implications and likely effects.
