Most productivity advice tells INFPs to push through the "why" and just do the work. But for us, that has never worked, and there's a real reason for it. In this video, I break down why the INFP personality type isn't procrastinating when it freezes before a task, and what introverted feeling (Fi) is actually doing in those moments. If you've been calling yourself lazy for years, this is the video. Understanding your cognitive functions and how your Soul function calibrates your values can change how you approach motivation, goals, and your INFP personality type completely.
