ENFP (7w6)
Sam Cooke personality type is ENFP, which is an introverted, intuitive, feeling, perceiving type. The best way to illustrate the difference between the two personalities is that ENFPs are more like extroverts who love people; INFJs are more like introverts who love ideas.
You can see this in the careers of the two types. Cooke was a singer, not a motivational speaker. He was a performer, not an inventor. But his success was so massive that his career spilled over into the realm of self-help books written by other people.

Infj Personality Type
Cooke isn’t just a one-of-a-kind phenomenon. He’s an ENFP.
I have no doubt that Myers-Briggs is a complex system, but what I personally see in the INFJ/ENFP profiles is that ENFPs are more often introverts who are extroverts at work. At home, they are introverts who are extroverts.
