level 1-2discover your identitySTARTGifted compassAfter reflecting on your past,
you got back behind the wheel
of your ship again
But your boat is still washed out
and floating around aimlessly
This all changes when you are put
to the test to show some personalityStart journeyABOUT LEVEL Maybe they hold the key
to free us from our miseryMaybe they have the answers
Maybe they can give us adviceWhenever we feel lost
it is tempting to ask others where to goIf they know what's best for them...
then they surely know
what's best for you too, right?Their ships are in way better shape and they have a boatload of experienceWe assume that others
know more than we doBut they can also point you
in the wrong direction
with all the best intentionsAdvice from other people
can point you in the right directionWell, yes.For them it is just uttering some words,
while you are putting yourself at riskIt's easy to tell someone what to do
when you don't have to bear
the consequences of a wrong decision.This is because
they don't have skin in the gameThey will not spent the same amount of time thinking about your life decisions as youThey do not know all factors at play
from financial burdens to past mistakes
from family ties and personal valuesOther people cannot oversee
your situation and considerationsYou cannot hand over the steering wheelIn all major life decisions
you are in chargeYour own mistakes are greater lessons
than someone telling you
where they went wrongIt feels like you're running on empty
you could use some fuelCurrently you've been dwelling
in this same spot for weeksBut hey,
what good is a steering wheel anyway
Your engine is not even runningYou take your hands off the wheel
and pull out your phoneMaybe a little shot of dopamine
will get your engine started againWelcome to an endless stream
of other people's highlights —.—'Surely they are not having
the same doubtsWhen you see former classmates their lives appear to be smooth sailingSurely they are not having
the same doubtsThey landed jobs, settled down
and some are raising childrenComparing yourself to others will lower your self-esteem and increase anxietyPlus it is unfair
as people choose what they share and filter out imperfectionsFollowing others impairs your own vision and creates shortsightedness On social media
you are comparing your reality
to a distorted realityBehind the feed we worship,
might be a life of hardshipYou need to face realityYou cannot follow others foreverDidn't you have a battery pack
in your backpack?You decide to put your phone awayYou can't remember what it is exactly...As you reach into your backpack
your hand slides across a cold metal objectA friend gave it to you
when they noticed you got off track

The validity of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator has faced a lot of criticism. As it is a self-assessment, it could be that you get different results depending on your mood.
It is not used in psychosocial practice and many of the studies that endorse the MBTI test are unscientific, methodologically weak or funded in favor of the MBTI.
So, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is by no means a scientific analysis of your personality. Keep that in mind. But you can use it as a tool for reflection to put your personality into words.
