Is everyone’s personality different?
We all have unique personalities. We are all different from each other. Each one of us represent a unique mix of different personality traits. No other person has the same mix of big five personality traits (and their facets) as you have.
Does everyone have different personalities?
Everyone can be described as having varying levels of agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, extroversion and openness to experience. Contrary to common perception, people aren’t confined to certain personality types. The universality of personality points to an evolutionary origin.

Why do people feel the same emotions in different people?
Though it stores different beliefs in different individuals, the interaction with those beliefs happens in the same way. This results in similar emotions and behaviours in people. There is no emotion that only a select few people feel because our fundamental neurobiology is the same. This alone has largely made the study of mind possible.
Are We all the same or different from each other?
Both schools of thought are correct. We are all the same but different from each other as well. Humans are born with some hard-wired behaviours that are a part of our genetic heritage. These are the behaviours we demonstrate just because we are humans. Another level of innate behaviours has to do with our sex and sex hormones.
Why don’t all people have the same beliefs?
No two people are raised in exactly the same set of circumstances. So no two people have the same set of beliefs. Even identical twins differ in their learned behaviours because of different life experiences. Still, the fundamental aspects of their personality (such as temperament) are more or less the same as these are controlled by genetics.
Is it better to be around similar people or dissimilar people?
Even though a dissimilar person would be more likely to actually provide new knowledge and experiences, research has shown that people are more likely to see self-expansion opportunities when interacting with someone who is similar, rather than dissimilar, to them.
