Bono of U2: An NF (Idealist) Personality
So, Bono is surely an NF Idealist, but which one? is Bono an ENFP or an INFJ? INFP or ENFJ? These are the two most widely “Thrown” personality types attributed to Bono. The way to figure out ones personality is often to simply listen. Listen to his words. listen to his history. His admittance of insecurity. His wild childhood. Listen to this wonderful interview with Focus on the Family and we will then review our thoughts on which “Type” Bono is using Bono’s words and history as clues in understanding his Godtype… This we do know… He is surely a “Jesus / Son” type.
Bono NF Quotes from Interview:
“The Job of Love is to realize the potential of others” if you are doing that equal – you then are going to get places”
An external focus on the concept of Love.
“I was an obnoxious kid, My mother was counselled by a neighbor to give me more discipline”
ENFP’s are notorious FREE willed children.
“We have to be very careful that grace and politeness do not merge into a banality of behavior where Christians are just nice. ie death by cupcake. manners are important but Remember Jesus did not have many manners, he just spoke directly to the situation.”
“I love the story of the Dude that came up to Jesus and praised him and told him of his fathers burial…Jesus responded to him “”Let the dead bury the dead”” It wasn’t cold hearted, it was Punk Rock to me.”
15:+
I see the idea that there is a force of love and logic, John uses the word Logos, you get the sense of love and magic in the universe. it is so perfect to me…
Intuitive Feelers are all in the “LOGIC” Domain.
18:+ insecurity ..
“I am particularly annoying when I am feeling vulnerable”
OK, which one? As a NT rational similar to Edge (entp) I am near certain that Bono is a ENFP Champion! Like Edge I have partnered with ENFP’s for 25+ years….. Every quote and childhood history above could have been written from their perspectives. Bono is certainly a Champion, the Hero Archetype which was embodied by Christ himself on a cross at cavalry.
Happy to read this. Always thought Bono was an enfp because he freely and openly talk about his emotions, his family and past.
