Characteristics:
Ni-hero means that INFJs have very strong willpower. They have already figured out what they want for their lives in early age. Also, once they decide to do something that is worthwhile, they are unstoppable. They will finish the job/task until it is done.
Fe-parent means that they have high level of empathy, including cognitive empathy and emotional empathy. They are able to understand/read a person within a short period of time.
Ti-child means that they value critical thinking and logical thinking. They are mainly sentimental but with a sense of reasoning. Usually they would build healthy boundaries between them and others for different reasons, but mainly to protect themselves. They are mature souls in young bodies. Most of them have grown wisdom before entering adulthood.
Se-inferior means that INFJs are afraid of giving other’s bad experiences. Therefore, sometimes they can be people pleasers.
Since they have Te-trickster and Si-demon, they are not good at reading statistics and little they care about reputations. Their long-term memory is pretty weak as well. They might not be able to recall something happened long time ago.
They are quick learners as well. They can read a person like a book and apply adaptations, so they can get along well with that person. Thus they are like shape shifters or mirrors. They usually excel in interpersonal relationships. But they choose their friends and inner circles very carefully. They value their alone/me time, they like to spend time on things that cultivate self-growth and meaningful. They are highly independent and efficient. They are excellent co-workers and supervisors.
They are perfectionists, they hold themselves and sometimes others at high standards. With such high EQ and IQ, there is a dark side in them. They can be too harsh on themselves and can be manipulative at times, if you stand between them and their goals.
