Personality:

Personality, a characteristic way of thinking, feeling, and behaving. Personality embraces moods, attitudes, and opinions and is most clearly expressed in interactions with other people. It includes behavioral characteristics, both inherent and acquired, that distinguish one person from another and that can be observed in people’s relations to the environment and to the social group.

1. Introvert (I) or Extrovert (E)

The major difference between introverts and extroverts is how comfortable they are socializing in their surroundings. An introvert will most likely prefer to avoid socializing with others, while extroverts will spend their entire day socializing with people. If you love to be alone and prefer to spend time all by yourself, then you are most likely an introvert. But if having fun means catching up with your friends and spending time outdoors, then you are most likely an extrovert. Introverts derive energy from solitude and being in a group or party exhausts them. Whereas extroverts derive energy by communicating with others.

2. Sensing (S) or Intuitive (N

People with dominant sensing traits base their decisions on practical a realistic scenarios. While individuals with dominant intuitive traits base their decision on their instinct, or “gut feeling” and try to see what the future scenario could be. Sensing individuals are very practical, realist, and focus on the present or the past. But intuitive individuals are somewhat a forecaster. They visualize the bigger picture and focus on future possibilities and hidden patterns.

3. Thinking (T) or Feeling (F)

A simple way to find out which out of these traits is more dominant in your personality, is by asking yourself, “do you follow your mind or heart?’. If you have the thinking trait, your decisions have logic and proper reasoning because you use your mind. This is because thinkers are very logical, analytical, and rational while making decisions. Facts and proofs are the basis of your decision making. But, in case of feeling, you prioritize your feelings over logic because your decisions rely on the sensitivity of the matter and maintaining social harmony. Individuals with the feeling trait are emotionally expressive and follow their heart over mind.

4. Judging (J) or Perceiving (P)

Are you a rule-breaker or do you abide by the rules? A person with a judging trait will never/most likely break any rules. They are responsible, fair, and have a high moral ground. But if you have broken many rules in life and enjoy being called a rule-breaker, then you have the perceiving trait because other things matter more to you than following rules.
