A Natural Boss: ENTJ
This personality type hits home, as I have an ENTJ dad and cousin. Thus, it is my intention to be precise and instructive since you fierce ENTJs like to get to the point. Let me begin by saying that you guys and gals are the exact opposite of me in mentality, strength, and leadership… and I deeply admire you for that reason. You are the type that is strong when I am weak, which is why I desire to do your personality type justice in this article.
For those of you who don’t know, ENTJs are “The Commander” personality type of the MBTI. They are usually known as the team leader due to their strong willpower and keen sense of leadership. 16Personalities tells us that,
“People with this personality type embody the gifts of charisma and confidence, and project authority in a way that draws crowds together behind a common goal.”
In my experience, I have never met an ENTJ that doesn’t have the gift of capturing the attention of everyone in the room. My dad, for one, is a tough cookie but has such a captivating intensity upon first meeting. When he enters a room, you know it! And in addition to this sense of great charisma and confidence, my dad happens to be a very talented blues musician — so many people know him first by his abilities.
What is even more surprising, is just how rare you ENTJs are. Unlike our popular ESFJs (Read The Queen of Summer: ESFJ for more info!),
“ENTJ is one of the least common types in the population, and the rarest type among women. ENTJs make up: 1.8% of the general population, 2.3% of men, [and] 1.5% of women,” says Truity.
Can you believe that? You guys only make up 1.8% of the population! No wonder you’re such impressive individuals. You have to make up for the rest of us (no shade on the other 15 types, though). My dad has definitely become a role model of strength and confidence in my life, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Yet, with all the ENTJ’s strategic thinking and energy, there are still weaknesses to deal with. Due to your intellectual prowess and desire for efficiency, sometimes it can be easy to forget about the feelings of those around you. Moreover, the more you impatient and stubborn you become with others, the same feelings you extend to yourself. That’s why dōTERRA’s Oregano is the essential oil for you!
Most people might not think of Oregano as useful beyond Italian dishes, but they would be so wrong! Oregano is the “Oil of Humility & Nonattachment.” According to Essential Emotions,
“Oregano cuts through the fluff of life and teaches individuals to do the same. It removes blocks, clears negativity, and cuts away negative attachments. Oregano is a powerful oil and may even be described as forceful or intense” (pg. 74).
It is my opinion that — in addition to these oils benefiting the various MBTI types in their weaknesses — the scent of an essential oil can capture the true essence of an individual. Like the book explains, Oregano is often thought of as an intense oil. I can say with complete confidence that every ENTJ that I have met shares the same quality. You ENTJs are such powerhouses, that you can sometimes come across as intense. However, this is not a dig to you. Most types don’t know how to handle your strength upon first meeting, which is why you might not feel understood. I know it can be frustrating when this happens. But I assure you, the rest of us are usually only intimidated by your boldness (I know I wish I had half of your self-assurance). Just remember to be patient with us!
So, when you are feeling frustrated and impatient, using Oregano can offer that support for you. Furthermore, if you feel as though your mental or physical space feels cluttered and it’s distracting you from your goals, diffusing and inhaling Oregano can encourage you to think clearly and work towards a solution. Because this essential oil is so strong on its own (and please mind your eyes), combining it with companion oils like Sandalwood, Lemongrass, or Tea Tree (Melaleuca) can offer you other scent profiles while giving you added benefits. Or you can even roll it on in the form of Oregano Touch!
