Discovering My Personalities

“The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can't be any large-scale revolution until there's a personal revolution, on an individual level. It's got to happen inside first”- Jim Morrison. Hence, discovering who I am is very important. In my opinion, Johari Window Model is a useful tool in self-analysis. After completing the online assessments and talking with friends and relatives I was able to complete my Johari Window filling the four quadrants: open, blind, hidden and unknown. There are many different opinions about my personalities. Few of my friends think that I am creative, clever and warm but I do not think so. My introvert personality makes me come across as unattached, shy, nervous, and serious. However, those people who know me think that I am not like that at all. I understand how I can be perceived as unattached and serious because I am a quiet person. I’m only open when I know you and trust you. I don’t like sharing my innermost thoughts and feelings. I am always nervous when I present in front of a crowd. I am not confident to introduce myself to others.
However, my close friends and relatives describe me as happy, kind, helpful, patient and caring. In some difficult situations, I tend to seek practical solutions and hope for the best possible outcome instead of drowning myself on the negative. When I have conflict to someone, I try to see both sides of a situation and put myself in people’s shoes to understand them better and to know why they acted in that certain way. Also, I care about people around me a lot because I don’t like seeing anyone down or in trouble. If I can do something to help, I will do. In addition, I am very patient. I always work on my assignments and homework for many hours. I will not give up until I find the

    Based on the theories, supposedly I’m a mild mannered extrovert that is sometimes obsessive but easily adjusted. I’ve always found myself somewhat of a balanced person but after reading the traits I had to question that. I’m not one of anything but I am many of everything at different times in my life.…

    When most people look at me, they don’t always see me. They see a girl. They see a quiet girl who is a big reader. They see a girl who is a hard worker and does well in school. They see the sister of three younger brothers. It’s true. I’m all of these things. I am also much, much more. I am mature in certain matters, and childish in others. I change my personality according to my surroundings, and do not show the world the real me. There are even some things that my family does not know about the real me.…

    I am very outgoing and sometimes consider myself to be very talkative, even when people tell me to be quiet I cannot help it. That is just the type of person I am. I like to be heard even if I am the only person listening to myself my brain is always running and developing new thoughts and ideas to discuss with other people. Whenever I am with my friends they are constantly telling me to be quiet because I never stop talking I just do not like it to be quiet. I feel that I am the life of the party I also do this at work with my co-workers I just like to talk I feel I have a mouth to express myself and be heard. Openness to experience I feel is another that describes me well because along with always thinking and talking I an very curious to know a little about everything. I feel that I can learn about different things forever, and that I can always learn how to do something I already know a different more efficient way. Curiosity never hurt anyone I believe the world is full of many mysteries and we must unlock and discover them to learn what they are. I also find myself building thing without the instructions not because I do not need them, but because I am curious to see if I can create what I am building without them. Even if I do not know something on a subject I will sometimes act as if I do because I want to see how gullible people are, and I also know many facts about everything so it is easy to believe me. Using agreeableness I would consider myself to be ruthless and soft-hearted why, because I tend to be easygoing and am kind to people I know, but if I do not know you I am not going to be nice to you. Do not get me wrong though even with people I know I can turn on if they give me a good cause to snap on them. People who hitch for rides I…

    For example in my own personality and behavioral style I do enjoy interacting with various people whether it be socially or professionally. Being extroverted I find being around people to be energizing and uplifting. I tend to find myself easily bored when not stimulated by conversation or social activity. When I speak, I tend to formulate my ideas as I'm vocalizing them. I am not always quite sure of my ideas until I hear myself vocalizing them. I also enjoy debating and playing devils advocate in a sense to make people think and interact with me as well. I will get into a healthy debate with a friend or colleague just for the social and verbal interaction. Innovative by nature, I tend to be ahead of times when it comes to personal styles, ideas, and trends. I'm always looking for a new style, technology, or idea to formulate into a tangible project. I often find myself coming up with ways to improve the technology I personally own by implementing new software and/or hardware. Also at times I do find myself neglecting projects that should be completed due to my constant over thinking the project as a whole.…

    The most salient aspect of my personality is being an introvert. I feel that I am introverted because I enjoy spending my time alone, doing quiet activities such as reading and interacting with people over social media. I am not a “party” person. However, I will go to a party, but I won’t necessarily enjoy my time there; I will usually leave early and in most cases I will leave with a headache. Although I do not enjoy spending time with large groups of people, I am the most comfortable while being with a small and close group of friends. However, I am not an extremely serious person, I am quite laid back, and although…

    I am a highly sensitive person who is naturally graceful and grateful for everything. I would like to think that I radiate an air of balance and harmony. My shyness is not discreet oftentimes. I may appear reserved, secretive and sometimes distant; but I am actually more than anxious to be liked. I am very deeply attached to my emotional, familial and social values; I am generous (and I could be more) because I like to make others happy.…

    I think of myself as a very easy going person, I’m usually very patient with other people and it takes a lot for me to truly get angry or upset. I’ll go out of my way to avoid confrontation usually and for the most part this makes me an easy person to get along with and fairly likeable. I also enjoy being social and have a large circle of friends. This transfers over in the workplace as I can get along with others and work well in team environments on projects. I also place a high value on relationship in the workplace and feel it’s important to get along with your fellow employees. I am also extremely optimistic and will always look to problem solve a way out of a scenario whether it be at work, school, or with my friends. These strengths also come with some areas that I believe I can improve on. I score in the lower half of openness to experience and this means I could work on thinking outside the box and being more creative. In the workplace I do value conventionality and order, which can be good, however it wouldn’t hurt to expand my thinking by getting more creative. This would be especially important if working on projects that don’t necessarily have set guidelines. One area, under conscientiousness, that I think people tend not to see about me is the fact that I am actually very organized, motivated, and structured. I like to know exactly what I’m doing and how to do something before I begin a project/assignment. I can see how people wouldn’t see this so much in me because when I am in more social situations I tend to appear to be loose and not very organized. Because my evaluator’s scores were so similar to mine, I don’t really know if there are any areas that people tend to see in me that I don’t. One slightly higher score was in emotionality. I don’t think I am emotional at all and for the most part I am worry free. My evaluator scored me slightly…

    I think that this assessment was rather accurate for me. In most cases I am a very expressive person. I love to dress uniquely and love to have meaningful knowledgeable conversations. It is also very annoying to me to have the same old same old routine. An example of this would be my drive to school, I always take a different route each day just to switch it up. In other instances though, like at my job or if I’m doing some kind of school presentation I do become an Inquisitive person. I pay close attention to detail to make sure I am doing everything that is asked of me. I also like to pick up certain styles from things I see people wear around me.…

    I enjoy structure and organizations. I like to know what to expect. I prefer to be organized and have set plans. I have a great memory for detail and am practical minded. Characteristically, I’m humble and unassertive. Due to my personality type, I value my personal relationships yet am very reserved towards new people: “Because they are quiet, people sometimes misinterpret this as standoffish behavior.” (Cherry) I rarely disclose personal information unless it’s to one of my few best friends. My personality type tends to be focused on our surroundings and can relate details to our personal experiences. I’m a compassionate listener and remember details about individuals. This will help me in pursuing my future career as a counselor. I enjoy hearing facts about others while making a connection with them.…

    Hard Work History

    • 535 Words
    • 3 Pages

    I have a history of being a hard working and dedicated student. I believe there is a good reason to work hard in class, as it will pay off later in life. I frequently ask questions to strive for a deeper understanding of the current topic. Occasionally though, my questions are ridiculous because I don’t think before I ask them. In class, I pay attention and work quietly when asked to. That being said, I do talk with my friends occasionally, but never when someone is presenting or the teacher is teaching. I do have overly energetic days where I may get a bit out of hand, so on days like that a gentle reminder is usually enough to bring my focus and attention back. Personality wise, I am generally a happy person. I try to be helpful and work together with others. Sometimes, I catch myself thinking conceitedly. That is something I am working to change. I am a social person and I like to have fun.…
