I find myself increasingly uncomfortable saying that I *am* a certain type-I *am* 4 or I *am* 5- because...well, because none of us is *identical* to our types. I who am I am not the same as any personality I might manifest. I feel concerned that repeatedly saying I *am* a certain type will just reinforce the identification. Does this make sense? So what I'm looking for is a different way of stating type. I'm manifesting 4? Expressing 5? Doing? Having? Does anyone have a concise, accurate, elegant way of stating type that avoids an identity statement? Or any other comments?

Thanks.
