Something incredibly fascinating to a lot of young people today are personality tests, specifically the Myers-Brigg personality indicator test or MBTI test. Many stereotypes come with such a test like ideas that ENFP personalities are overly emotional and moody or that ISFJ personalities are always timid and shy. However, because every individual being is incredibly complex and different I highly doubt that these stereotypes are always true and it seems farfetched to say that every human being on the planet can be defined with only 16 personality types. That being said, MTBI tests are a great way to give others a quick glance into a portion of your personality and that's why I am going to go into what each letter of the MBTI personality stands for.  https://www.wellandgood.com/common-stereotypes-myers-briggs-personality-type/  The MBTI test indicates your personality in 4 different dimensions: Where you focus your attention ( E xtroversion/ I ntroversion), The way you take in ...
