A True ENTP

• You’re drawn to deep, imaginative, intellectual and philosophical conversation – and you follow logic over emotion.

• You love to “think on your feet” and have a talent for simplifying complex ideas and seeing connections between seemingly unrelated concepts.

• You’re highly independent, valuing adaptability, and encouraging change.

• You need the freedom to take action - your career should allow you to be innovative and take risks.

• Though others who don't know you well may perceive your desire for flexibility as indecisiveness, you're simply setting flexible goals that allow you to incorporate fresh information and fit new circumstances.

• You resist hierarchy and structure and push against all odds to further your projects with your entrepreneurial tendencies.

Relationships

• You’re normally laid-back and easy-going in romantic relationships and will fight for those you love to the death (metaphorically).

• You like to have a stable partner (or at least a partner that can withstand and appreciate your tests and debates).

• You’re an excellent communicator, but you have faults with deep-dives of emotion.  You’re logical at heart.

• There’s no doubt that you’re attentive to your partner – it’s in your nature to pay attention, but you might be faulted (by Feelers) for not seeing nuance or for understanding connections that are emotional in nature.

Recommendations

• Consider the emotions of others -though emotions aren’t necessarily in your wheelhouse ----ALL emotions are valid – because the people you’re dealing with are valid and their emotions are real to them. 

• Strict schedules are a reality – you should adhere to them – your submissions to the schedule will be appreciated even if they’re half-baked.
