ISFPs are the adventurers of the MBTI world. When compared with the enneagram of personality, a few identify as the ISFP 8w9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This article discusses the ISFP 8w9 and what you can expect from them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ISFP 8w9s are calm people with a touch of discipline. This personality type has a strong core but usually goes with the flow. Because of their wing, they might seem calm and easygoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Type 8w9 is quite rare for an ISFP for various reasons. First, type 8s have traits that go against the very nature of ISFPs. Type 8s is also more popular with judging types. Nevertheless, ISFP 8w9s is more popular than ISFP 8w7s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The presence of type 8 changes some of the typical traits of the ISFP, as we shall soon see. ISFP 8w9s are usually slightly assertive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The core desire of the ISFP 8w9 is to be in control of their lives. To achieve this, they guard their values fiercely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The core fear of the ISFP 8w9 is to lose control of their lives. They don\u2019t want to be told what to do or want others to decide for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ISFPs are blessed with a strong introverted feeling function. This only gets stronger with the introduction of type 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thus, ISFP 8w9s might have very dogged views or perspectives. Because of type 8, their opinions will be entrenched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They might also be more open to defending these ideas. This is unlike the typical ISFPs who have strong values but only express them when challenged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ISFPs are passionate. While this is true, they are not famous for their grit or determination. They want to do what they love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With ISFP 8w9s, things are different. You can sense an edge with them. This personality type has stronger willpower. This allows them to face and overcome obstacles faster than typical ISFPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is one reason why they can be mistyped as ISTJs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This follows the last point. With more determination comes the need to work harder. ISFP 8w9s will work harder for their goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While this is true, the presence of ISFP and type 9<\/a> means that their work ethic won\u2019t be off the charts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There will remain patches of complacency and inconsistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As earlier stated, this personality type is goal-oriented. They also have the grit and willpower to power through their challenges. This naturally makes them ambitious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Backed by type 8\u2019s<\/a> need to achieve something special and long-lasting, they will strive for great things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The presence of type 8 also gives them greater access to their intuition. So, ISFP 8w9s will be more future-oriented than typical ISFPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ISFPs adore their loved ones. This is even more pronounced with ISFP 8w9s. They are extremely protective of those they care about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This comes to the fore when their loved ones are intimidated or bullied. You\u2019ll see a completely different side of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This might shock people as they are usually perceived as calm and easygoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ISFPs are perceivers. This means that they are more vulnerable to issues with procrastination. With ISFP 8w9, things are different. While complacency and procrastination might linger, they will persist somewhat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This personality type will have greater follow-through with their projects. They will also be more action-oriented than typical ISFPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Like most type 8s, this personality type will have anger issues. Type 8 and type 9 are in the anger triad. However, how these types approach anger is different. Type 8 likes to confront the problem headlong, while 9 seeks to repress it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thus, type 8\u2019s anger is hot, confrontational, and swift, while type 9\u2019s anger slowly builds and comes with resentment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ISFP 8w9s have the worst of both worlds. The way they react to annoying situations can be very unpredictable. Make no mistake, they are volatile people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As earlier stated, ISFP 8w9s have strong values. However, there\u2019s a drawback to this. This personality type can become extremely stubborn with their values. This might make them sentimental and subjective in their thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The problem with this is that your values are not always right. It also leads to judgemental decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As with most things in life, the key is striking a balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While their natural desire might be to control their lives, they might have issues controlling people and situations. Here\u2019s why. ISFP 8w9s have strong opinions and values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They like to talk about these values and can be pretty assertive. By doing this, they unintentionally try to control others in their circle. They want others to agree with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Proof of this is their annoyance when something doesn\u2019t share their values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ISFPs are the most rebellious sensor type. With the addition of type 8, things get even more intense. Thus, expect this type to go against the status quo when it goes against their values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also expect them to question long-existing rules and traditions. However, because of their wing, they may play along if it does not infringe on their values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a>4. <\/strong>More Ambitious<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
