ENFJs tend to make decisions based on feelings and gut instincts. They are empathetic and considerate of how something may affect others, which is often reflected in the choices they make.

It’s important that others value ENFJs considerate nature.
They may have a difficult time adapting to an unforeseen situation. They prefer to follow set plans and find comfort in consistency, so rapid change is likely to shock them. However, once they have a chance to adjust their mindset and get used to the change, ENFJs will likely feel normal again.
