#7 - MBTI-Labelling: Why Personality Tests Are Unreliable In Psychology
The core of the individual is a mystery of life, which dies when it is "grasped" (MBTI-labelling)
You are NOT a "character type".
We instead have a system-Self that regulates, transforms and evolves depending on life experience that are based around 4 core archetypes of the psyche.
This is because the ego can be broken down and reformed.
This system-Self is maintained by (in)expression of universal archetypes, such as: The King, Warrior, Magician & Lover within masculinity in men.
It is these archetypes that can fall in and out of their shadow components during different periods of life which change and evolve the structure of your personality and ego-identity.
This is why you will never remain a singular personality type throughout your entire life. Because typology cannot discover objective truths as it claims it can.
We are subjective beings living through objective archetypal experiences.
In 2 years ahead of time (depending on your individuation progress and maturity) you will have a different personality that is not the same as before, this is also why your personality type test results will change over time.
If it doesn't change it either means one of two things:
1. You are very self-aware and have a strong sense of Self that remains consistent throughout the years, through the journey of self-discovery you have come to understand who you are very well.
Or...
2. That you are not living out your life as you should to experience the growth needed to evolve and overcome the results of your personality types inferior functions, not confronting your inferior functions holds you back from complete self-awareness to be able to develop a well rooted ego-identity.
Identifying and working on your inferior functions in relation to your present personality test result is the key to developing a well rounded ego-identity through self-development.
