Synonyms Can Be Confusing

I got distracted. Train of thought? Looked up the word 'introvert' to get a real definition for my essay, not just the social construct and connotation of the word. Then I saw the word 'archetypal' in one of the search results which got me thinking about paradigm, paragon, and epitome (because of 'archetype'), and what the difference is between all 3 of them. So I looked it up and found that this link yielded the most helpful answer because they all seem to have the same definition to me.
