ISFJs are truly warm and kind-hearted, and want to believe the best of people. They value harmony and cooperation, and are likely to be very sensitive to other people's feelings. People value ISFJs for their consideration and awareness, and their ability to bring out the best in others by their firm desire to believe the best.
ISFJs have a rich inner world that is not usually obvious to observers. They constantly take in information about people and situations that is personally important to them, and store it away. This tremendous store of information is usually startlingly accurate, because the ISFJ has an exceptional memory about things that are important to their value systems.
ISFJs have a very clear idea of the way things should be, which they strive to attain. They value security and kindness, and respect traditions and laws. They tend to believe that existing systems are there because they work. Therefore, they're not likely to buy into doing things in a new way, unless they're shown a concrete way why its better than the established method.
ISFJ Strengths
Supportive – ISFJs are the universal helpers, sharing their knowledge, experience, time and energy with anyone who needs it, and all the more so with friends and family. People with this personality type strive for win-win situations, choosing empathy over judgment whenever possible.
Reliable and Patient – Rather than offering sporadic, excited efforts that leave things half finished, ISFJs are meticulous and careful, taking a steady approach and bending with the needs of the situation just enough to accomplish their end goals. ISFJs not only ensure that things are done to the highest standard, but often go well beyond what is required.
Imaginative and Observant – ISFJs are very imaginative, and use this quality as an accessory to empathy, observing other's emotional states and seeing things from their perspective. With their feet firmly planted on the ground, ISFJs have a very practical imagination, though they do find things quite fascinating and inspiring.
Enthusiastic – When the goal is right, ISFJs take all their support, reliability and imagination and apply it to something they believe will make a difference in people's lives – whether fighting poverty with a global initiative or simply making a customer's day.
Loyal and Hard-Working – Given a little time, the ISFJ's enthusiasm grows into loyalty. ISFJ personalities often form an emotional attachment to the ideas and organizations they've dedicated themselves to. Anything short of meeting their obligations with good, hard work fails their own expectations.
Good Practical Skills – The best part is, ISFJs have the practical sense to actually do something with all this altruism. If mundane, routine tasks are what need to be done, ISFJs can see the beauty and harmony that they create, because they know that it helps them to care for their friends, family, and anyone else who needs it.
ISFJ Weaknesses
Humble and Shy – The meek shall inherit the earth, but it's a long road if they receive no recognition at all. This is possibly the ISFJ's biggest challenge, as they are so concerned with other's feelings that they refuse to make their thoughts known, or to take any duly earned credit for their contributions. The ISFJ's standards for themselves are also so high that, knowing they could have done some minor aspect of a task better, they often downplay their successes entirely.
Take Things Too Personally – ISFJs have trouble separating personal and impersonal situations – any situation is still an interaction between two people, after all – and any negativity from conflict or criticism can carry over from their professional to their personal lives, and back again.
Repress Their Feelings – People with the ISFJ personality type are private and very sensitive, internalizing their feelings a great deal. In the same way that ISFJ's protect the feelings of others, they must also protect their own, and this lack of healthy emotional expression can lead to a lot of stress and frustration.
Overload Themselves – The ISFJ's strong sense of duty and perfectionism combined with their aversion to emotional conflict creates overwhelming situations. ISFJs can easily become overloaded by their own expectations and other people's demands.
Reluctant to Change – ISFJs find it hard to address their own problems because they value tradition and stabiliy. Certain situations sometimes needs to reach a breaking point before ISFJs are persuaded by circumstance, or the strong personality of a loved one, to alter course.
Too Altruistic – Being such warm, good-natured people, ISFJs are willing to let things slide. They sincerely believe that things will get better soon so as to not burden others by accepting their offers of help, while their troubles mount unassisted.
