An important but difficult question that all INFPs should ask themselves is how many viable opportunities and possibilities are they missing out on because they're focused on familiar routines and comfort and safety? Now, is it an easy question? No, not at all.

And someone asked me, another INFP asked me, how can I grow my secondary function, extroverted intuition? And extroverted intuition is one of the key growth points for INFPs.

Extroverted intuition is a way of taking in information, learning about the world through ideas, through possibilities, through brainstorming, through shaking things up, getting out of the box, looking at it from different angles, playing around with life.

And what can happen a lot of times for INFPs based off client conversations and my own personal experience is we get a bit stuck in the comfy sofa mode.

And it causes us to loop through negative thoughts and the same routines and experiences that are not actually helping us improve our lives.

So in this video, I want to give you 10 different ways of improving your extroverted intuition.

This comes from the Path of Heroes Academy course of mine, as well as 10 different questions that you can ask in order to tap into the extroverted intuition mindset.
