"Why Are We Like This? 16 Personality Types That Determine How We Live, Work, and Love" People are not alike, and this often leads to conflicts and emotional suffering. However, understanding the nature of these differences - the 16 personality types - will make our lives richer and more balanced. By acknowledging that differences exist, we can modify them slightly if necessary. While an extrovert will probably never need (and won't be able) to become an introvert, and a sensor will not become an intuitive, there is a wonderful golden mean. Moreover, the better you learn to use qualities you are not inclined to, the fewer weaknesses you will have in yourself and your family relationships. For example, extroverts could benefit from listening to their conversation partner sometimes, while introverts should learn to express their feelings and thoughts verbally. Sensors can take some time to indulge in pleasant dreams about the future, setting aside all pressing matters, while intuitives could, for a change, do some household work, fix something, or, as a last resort, call a specialist for help. Logicians could sometimes show their feelings, while ethics should occasionally put their needs above their partner’s. Rational types can set aside a couple of hours in their schedule for spontaneous, chaotic relaxation, while irrationals should try to finish at least one task each day that they planned to put off until tomorrow. Once you understand typological differences, you will have a real chance to coexist with these differences and learn to derive benefit and pleasure from them. Why the book "Why Are We Like This?" is Worth Reading The book will help you better understand yourself and the traits of your personality - both those that can (and should) be changed and those that you cannot change no matter how hard you try - and consequently behave more effectively in various life situations. It will help you better understand others and stop expecting from them what they can never give you, which means you can develop a compromise interaction that allows everyone to remain themselves. Whatever the problem may be, typology magically softens conflicts and helps resolve any issue in any area of life - from choosing a diet to choosing a life path.
