I have taking the Myers Briggs in the past and was equal in thinking and feeling. Is it possible for your personality to change later in life?

There are a lot of INFP out there. People always inspire for perfection. Some people say that you better shoot for the moon, because if you fail, you will land on the stars anyway. There's nothing wrong for being INFP. You just have to know when to stop and start enjoing yourself.
Your personality will change later in life. When you reach 30, you will not have the same personality as when you were 20 or 10. Personality changed by life. Your life will mold you to the better if you want to be better. Its all up to you because life cannot change you unless you want to change. However, you do not want to be a 30 year old woman with a character of a 10 year old girl, do you?
IMO, you should not worry about the different between what you think and what you feel. Sometimes we think and feel differently. In other times, we will think and feel of the same. Its life. Its normal.
For example: At midnight, suddenly you feel you want to have an ice cream. Your mind tells you that its inappropriate because of all the fat that you will gain from eating ice cream at midnite.
At times, your feelings may win over your way of thinking. Other times, your way of thinking may win over your feeling. This has happened so many times in history.
We see and learn of forbidden love and forbidden marriages. Remember Romeo and Juliet. Those things occur because society has determine how should we feel and think of somethings in particular. But society doesn't rule you, you are the ruler of yourself.
Even Queen Elizabeth I have found that the most difficult thing to govern is the heart.
So, embrace your life, whatever it maybe, and be what your heart wants to be and never forget to clear your mind so that your heart will understand the heart of life.

Sorry, INTP. And no you are born with your traits, you can deny them but you can't change them.
