I'm a turbulent ISFJ.

The description of Turbulent ISFJs: 1. Self-conscious 2. Care about their image 3. Success-driven 4. Perfectionists.

1. Self-conscious: I'm very aware of my inner feelings and thought processes. I sort out the information I gather each day and determine whether it would be useful for me in the future over time. This means that I am able to notice a lot of my perceived flaws and weaknesses.

2. Care about image: At some level, I do care about image, especially how others perceive me. Being callous or inappropriate is not okay in most settings and I strive to act (mostly) professional. However, I'm at the belief that eventually, if people want a close relationship with me, I have to drop the masks and show them who I am.

3. Success-driven: Yes, I'm driven by success. I have set goals for myself and I will slowly, but surely drag myself to obtain them. Doesn't matter how long it takes, as long as I find it a worthy cause to go for, I move forward towards that goal. Examples include: Changing my younger self's personality, learning how to look people in the eye, become less socially awkward, and so on.

4. Perfectionist: I'm a perfectionist on things that I truly care about or feel that I've invested too much energy into it to not put my best effort into it. I've had redone certain homework assignments from the bottom up when I was younger because it didn't come out right or that I made a noticeable blemish on it that could not be hidden.

Though, unlike @Gossip Goat, I don't believe that being a Turbulent ISFJ is an unhealthy one. It simply depends on how it is interpreted or how the individual wish to work the cards given to them.

1. Self-conscious -> Being more aware, which means less likely to fall into mistakes or unhealthy habits. Also, can get out of a funk much easier.

2. Care about self-image -> Become attractive to others, drawing in people and make others respect and trust you.

3. Success-driven -> Set goals for one-self, which leads to a purpose in life. Also, drives self to become assertive, independent, resourceful, knowledgeable, and worldly.

4. Perfectionist -> Having standards. In a world where people do the bare minimum, doing well and beyond separates the individual from the crowd.
