Why don't INTJs
rule the world?
Why don’t INTJs rule the world?
For
the very reason that most people end up telling the INTJ “you were right” after
they ignored their advice, because they just had to try it their way first. The
other types are able to figure things out by using their hands, tearing things
apart, examine all the pieces, and putting them back together. It’s the tearing
things apart that we INTJs can do in our heads that most people can’t, so they
simply don’t believe that we could possibly know by studying it, thinking it
through. Most ask “but how do you know?” because they can’t, themselves,
conceptualize it like the INTJ, and therefore ignore them.
INTJs
as leaders wouldn’t be liked, because we would implement models and rules that
would be efficient and fair, but not popular. People don’t like other people
telling them what to do, even if it’s for their own good.
I imagine an INTJ in charge would be like all
those poor scientists proving that climate change is real, and having people
just dismiss all the science and research, because, they think it’s a ‘hoax’.
Try as they may to be in charge, all the other MBTI types would just wander off
and build their own world, similar to the one that we have now ; )
