Dreams Around The World - The Podcast For ENFPs (Campaigners), ADHDers, and Ambitious Creatives

I've received a question from a fellow ENFP, Judy, a Syrian living in the Netherlands for the past 3 years. She says she picked up the language pretty quickly and started her Bachelor's degree this year, which was great, but there is a problem: "Everywhere I go, I find myself feeling like an outsider. It's such a shame that I barely interact or hang out with my classmates or roommates unless I'm drunk because I'm insecure about my Dutch and it makes me appear as less friendly, but silent and distant. Which is, of course, a nightmare for an ENFP. Aside from that, I can't relate or be engaged with most subjects that are brought up in a typical conversation and the Dutch are really distant people and difficult to approach unless they're drunk. So I truly miss the Syrian spontaneity in everything. When I use English, though, I am way more open, can have fun conversations easily and express myself way better and just be myself. The only problem is it is really awkward to start speaking English out of nowhere with everyone and it is not very beneficial for learning Dutch. So do you have a tip for me to be myself, communicate better with native speakers, and use a new language?"

If you're an ENFP or INFP and something doesn't go your way, well...things might just go downhill from there. Don't worry, I got you! Us ENFPs and INFPs love being comfortable and we're excited when things go well, but...when they don't, we might fall into a destructive mindset. We're idealists and we should be able to find solutions to our problems in creative ways, right? Unfortunately, this negative thinking can make us stuck and prevent us from moving forward. These destructive patterns can lead us ENFPs and INFPs to change direction too often, not follow through on our goals, and ultimately not accomplish anything significant in our lives for years! In this episode I'm explaining why this happens and, more importantly, how to solve it.

Are you FAILING your MBTI Type?! An INFP sent in a question about this topic and I'd like to share my own story that relates to personality psychology (mis)understandings.  There are a lot of extremes when it comes to understanding 16 personalities. If you're an idealist personality type, especially an INFP or ENFP, your environment might be affecting you more than other types, so you may end up not recognizing yourself in most of your personality type descriptions. So are you a true authentic INFP or ENFP or not?! Full question: "Hey Dan, apparently INFPs are optimistic about dreams and love and believe in happy endings, but none of these are true for me. For some reason, as a 16-year-old, I'm too afraid to allow myself to dream about being happy in the future, and I don't really believe in love (for myself) even though I've never been heartbroken before. Does that make me a bit 'less' INFP?"

I've been in Belgrade, Serbia for a few weeks. In the process I've been testing out some different approaches around goals, productivity, and fitness as an ENFP. It's not always easy to have enough self-control and stick to our diet and health plans when traveling, especially for us ENFPs and INFPs. We like to try new things, experience the new place, people...and food, of course! I want to share some updates on my own diet, big picture thinking, fitness, and productivity.
