Living ENTPs are lively children who question established truths and norms, dream and scheme, and develop unusual ways of doing traditional childhood things. ENTP children enjoy inventing new toys, dances, and languages. As young adults, when ENTPs choose a career for themselves, they tend to set flexible goals that allow them to incorporate new information and accommodate to new circumstances when they come along. As adults, ENTPs take advantage of opportunities. Learning and Working ENTPs are relentless learners.

There aren't many Inventors, say about two percent of the population, but they have great impact on our everyday lives. With their innovative, entrepreneurial spirit, Inventors are always on the lookout for a better way, always eyeing new projects, new enterprises, new processes.

One more peculiarity is the element of chaos and destruction that ENTps bring to every field of their activity .
