Although it’s difficult to determine whether or not reincarnation occurs, one popular explanation is that we return to settle issues and conflicts that we could not resolve in our previous lifetimes.
According to this notion, each of us returns as a completely different person than we were in our previous incarnations. People with completely new thought processes and approaches to problem-solving than our previous selves just lacked.
We return as the shadow of who we were before if you will. And this is precisely how that past self would have seemed, based on your Myers-Briggs personality type.

ESTJ
You were a well-known poet in your previous life. You built prose and stayed hidden from the world in your small hut in the woods. You saw the woodland animals that hopped past your door each morning as symbols of the human predicament, and you were inspired by them.

For the majority of your existence, you wished to dramatically alter the fact that you were somewhat unrealistic and wishy-washy.
ISTJ

INTP
You were an A-list celebrity in a previous life. You lived your entire life in the public eye, being spoken about in gossip pages and coveted by everyone.

There was always a tiny part of you that wondered “what if” and felt constrained.
ISFJ
You were an anarchist in your previous existence. You spent your entire life openly and provocatively opposing the current quo at every chance because you felt that people weren’t supposed to be governed. You didn’t mind being arrested for public disruptions regularly.

One that allowed you to exercise your creativity and concentrate on creating things you enjoyed only for their own sake.
ESFP
You were a philosopher in a previous life. You spent much of your time locked up with books in the library, and you were always searching for wisdom and knowledge. On a wide range of subjects, your friends turned to you for your knowledge; there was nothing you hadn’t researched thoroughly and developed your intriguing viewpoint on. But when your life came to a close, you discovered that you had mostly forgotten to live and had instead spent the entire time contemplating how to live. You made a vow to never take anything for granted in your next life.
