Hi there! So, as the title says, I don’t know if I’m ENTP or ESTP, or maybe even a mixture of the two. Maybe you guys can help me out. I’m extremely witty and love to joke around and am very creative, but I’m also extremely physical, fast-paced, and competitive. Honestly, I fit into both types pretty perfectly, but I have no clue how to question myself to try to pin down exactly which one.

Any ideas?

Which do you trust more, impulses, or reason? Do you care more about competency and achievement, or spontaneity?

Honestly, if you came asking questions? ENTP. Purely because no ESTP I know would use a forum for self discovery

Referring to the But ....

The qualities you've mentioned before and after what I have highlighted aren't mutually exclusive.

Right now I am leaning on ESTP, because the qualities you've mentioned sound like strong Se. However some of the physical and competitive aspects could be influenced by your enneagram (8w7 as you've indicated) and not cognitive function tendencies.

[laughs in quarantined extrovert] Bold of you to assume I didn’t come here for the social aspect.

You gotta tell us more about yourself if you want an accurate answer. Any type can be creative, and any type can be athletic as well. Anyway, you're a P type for sure, since you're too lazy to write an actual post :laugh:

I was going to get slightly salty with you and write a snippy post back, but I honestly don’t want to. You’re begrudgingly valid.

How in touch are you with what is happening around you?

Pretty in tune, actually. I have pretty fast reflexes too, not gonna lie. If only I actually liked playing sports. I don’t because I have the fucking mind of a crackhead hamster and get freaked out whenever people or any sort of object starts coming toward me at high speeds.

Are you more head in the clouds or feet on the ground?
Would you rather spend time enjoying what is or thinking about what could be?

I have this weird way of being. I phase out of reality when nothing is important and become very head in the clouds, but as soon as I’m needed, I immediately snap back down to earth and enjoy being there? So like I spend 50/50 in both headspaces. Maybe slightly more head in clouds, and I enjoy thinking about what could be. But I’m also very in the moment and if something isn’t going how I want, I do a ton of shit to change it. So...

I genuinely think I’m a mix of the two personalities.
