They are warmly enthusiastic and imaginative, see life as full of possibilities, make connections between events and information very quickly, and confidently proceed based on the patterns they see. ENFPs want much of affirmation from others and readily give appreciation and support. They are spontaneous and flexible, often rely on their ability to improvise and utilize their verbal fluency. ENFPs find facts, details, and repetitive activities boring. They approach the outer world with trust and optimism.

“Anything is possible”

ENFPs are fiercely independent and crave creativity and freedom.



It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for – and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing. It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool – for love – for your dreams – for the adventure of being alive.

The ENFP personality is a true free spirit. They are often the life of the party, but unlike types in the Idealist Role group, ENFPs are less interested in the sheer excitement and pleasure of the moment than they are in enjoying the social and emotional connections they make with others. Charming, independent, energetic and compassionate, the 7% of the population that they comprise can certainly be felt in any crowd.
