Here’s How You Feel About Redundancy, Based on Your Personality Type

For some people redundancy is a good way to learn and memorize certain things, for others it is both exhausting and pointless. Here is how you respond to redundancy, based on your personality type.

 

INFJ

INFJs definitely aren’t fans of redundancy, and often find it to be exhausting. When someone continues to go over the same things in different ways, it becomes frustrating for the INFJ. They pick up on things subconsciously, so when someone continues to repeat themselves it feels like an endless loop. INFJs also dislike having to be repetitive themselves, especially in a situation where someone simply isn’t listening closely to what they are explaining. For the INFJ redundancy really isn’t something they want to deal with, and leaves them feeling entirely drained.

ENFJ

ENFJs don’t like having to deal with redundancy, and prefer to have things done right the first time. For them having to listen to or watch the same things in repetition, becomes both draining and frustrating for them. ENFJs would rather have things clear and understandable, and find it easy to pick up on things without much help. ENFJs also dislike having to repeat themselves to others, and would rather have them understand. When something seems to be repetitive or redundant, it can leave the ENFJ feeling trapped in some ways.

INFP

One of the last things an INFP wants to deal with is a sense of repetition or redundancy. They prefer things to be new and don’t want to keep experiencing the same things over and over again. When they are around people who are redundant, the INFP often tunes them out and simply goes somewhere else in their minds. They try to seem present in the conversation but will definitely disconnect. INFPs don’t like feeling a sense of routine, so the idea of someone who is redundant is definitely draining. INFPs also hate having to repeat themselves simply because someone is paying attention.

ENFP

ENFPs aren’t fans of redundancy, and prefer things to be new and unique. When they are around people who are continuously redundant, it leaves them feeling drained and frustrated. ENFPs can become annoyed by people who seem to repeat the same stories and have a hard time paying close attention to them. They often tune out these types of people, and try to go somewhere else inside of their thoughts. For ENFPs this type of repetition actually very annoying, which is why repetitive humor doesn’t often strike them as amusing.

 

INTJ

INTJs aren’t really fans of having to have things repeated, since they prefer to have it right the first time. They do realize that sometimes redundancy is necessary when people simply aren’t getting the point clearly. INTJs don’t like having to repeat themselves though, and would rather not waste their time and energy on people who require this. For the INTJ redundancy can be a bit draining, especially when they are often far ahead of others when it comes to picking up on the information at hand.

ENTJ

While ENTJs don’t like redundancy when it comes to their work, they can sometimes be redundant themselves. They want things to be done right the first time, but ENTJs often recognize that people don’t pay full attention to what they hear. So the ENTJ might feel the need to be a bit redundant, in order to real make sure their point is clear and known. They become annoyed when people do not listen, but sometimes they feel the need to push the information to get it done.

INTP

INTPs aren’t fans of having to be redundant themselves, and prefer when people pick up on things initially. They will repeat themselves if it seems like the necessary thing to do, but they will likely be clearly frustrated in their tone. INTPs also enjoy exploring information in many different forms, which can sometimes appear a bit redundant. For them it more about approaching things from an objective standpoint, so that they can collect all of the data needed to make an educated decision.

ENTP

ENTPs often dislike redundancy, simply because they thrive with a sense of newness. ENTPs want to be able to explore their options, instead of simply seeing the same things in repetition. They want to absorb new information, and can become bored with sameness rather quickly. Redundancy often feels completely unnecessary and almost draining for the ENTP to encounter. They would rather step into something new so that they can actually learn and continue to grow.

 

ISTJ

ISTJs actually don’t mind redundancy at times, since it gives them a sense of comfort and understanding. In order to truly know something back and forth, a little repetition is often required. ISTJs enjoy being able to feel completely prepared for what comes next in their lives, so redundancy actually doesn’t leave them feeling as drained as change often does.

ESTJ

ESTJs don’t mind redundancy, as long as it helps them understand something better. They will also be a bit repetitive with others if they feel like their point hasn’t completely been processed. For the ESTJ redundancy and repetition, is often better than change and constantly bouncing around. They prefer when things are clearly laid out in front of them, and enjoy being able to go over the information.

ISFJ

ISFJs don’t mind a bit of redundancy in their lives, since they prefer things they understand and know. When things seem repetitive it often gives the ISFJ a chance to go over that information and become more aware. They would often prefer a sense of repetition, over constant change. ISFJs prefer things that make them more comfortable, especially since their main focus is creating harmony in their environment.

ESFJ

For ESFJs too much redundancy can be draining, and can leave them feeling as though time is being wasted. People who repeat themselves can leave the ESFJ feeling a bit exhausted, but they will often hide this rather well. They don’t want to upset anyone, and by nature they are people pleasers. The ESFJ will often respond by pretending like these redundant stories are new to them, in order to help others feel more at ease.

 

ISTP

ISTPs definitely don’t handle redundancy well, and prefer when things are fresh and exciting. They want to avoid constant repetition in their lives, which is why they can sometimes feel a need to be own their own. ISTPs often prefer a sense of freedom, and might even feel a need to give up their current lives for something new. For the ISTP someone who is redundant can be rather annoying, and will cause them to block them out entirely.

ESTP

ESTPs don’t mind repetition sometimes, since they often run the same things over in their minds anyways. While ESTPs are seen as wanting to experience adventure and newness, they can be a bit redundant at times. When they have certain stories in their minds they often want to relive them, which can cause the ESTP to share these same stories over and over again. They don’t intend to be redundant in this way, they simply want to bring these moments back to live.

ISFP

For the ISFP redundancy can be a bit tiresome, since they enjoy being able to experience newness. They sometimes bounce from one thing to the next, wanting to find something that feels inspirational to them. ISFPs want to follow their passions in life, and often want to live their lives in the present instead of constantly repeating things that are draining and redundant.

ESFP

ESFPs do enjoy experiencing new things, but in some ways redundancy doesn’t bother them. They can often make the old feel new, since retelling of stories and experiences can make those times feel alive again. ESFPs can sometimes be repetitive, going over things they have already explained or expressed multiple times before. They don’t do this intentionally, they simply have these thoughts running through their minds over and over and they enjoy sharing them with others.
