In this week’s insight, we explored how INFJs are the most likely personality type to say they can usually tell whether they’re going to like someone before they talk to them. Today’s deep dive will help you navigate the beautiful tension between trusting your intuitive gifts and staying open to unexpected connections.

Have you ever found yourself sitting across from someone at dinner, genuinely enjoying their company, and thinking “I almost didn’t give this person a chance.”

Maybe they seemed too quiet at first, or their energy felt completely different from yours, or something about them just didn’t click in those initial moments. Yet there you are, hours later, discovering they share your deepest values or have insights that genuinely surprise you.

It’s a humbling reminder that your remarkable ability to read people quickly – while incredibly valuable – isn’t always the complete picture of who someone is or who they might become in your life.

Today, we’re exploring how to stay open to meaningful connections that don’t announce themselves immediately.

In this week’s action plan we’re exploring how to:

  • Recognize when surface moments don’t tell the whole story

  • Practice patience with people who you don’t immediately click with

  • See first meetings from the other person’s perspective
