For a long time, it was believed that personality is permanent.
But, contrary to what is perceived of personality, it can be changed, more like a fluid in a vessel. Just like a fluid takes the shape of the vessel you pour it in, your personality shows what kind of a person you are.
When it comes to the corporate sector, recruiting managers are increasingly giving job candidates personality tests as a part of their hiring process. They believe that personality tests predict whether a candidate will be suitable for the job role or not, more accurately than a personal interview.
So while you ponder on whether your personality would suit the job you’ve applied to, we suggest a few way that could help you improve your personality. Read on.
Be confident
Maybe the thing you’re pursuing is for the first time and you have no experience in it. But you have to be confident in what you do. To meet someone or fix a meeting, the first thing you do is confirming the meeting over the phone. Believe me, people do get to know about your confidence over the phone. Your confidence speaks of your work and your positivity to accomplish it. Success was never easy for anyone. Motivate yourself by thinking about what you want to do and reading success stories of other people.
Attire
I am not sure if you believe in the first impression is the last impression thing, but your way of dressing definitely is a big aspect of your personality. Dressing up according to the occasion is the biggest catch here. For example dressing up flashy for a professional reason will make you look out of place. However, a wedding reception or something similar, demands for flashy dressing. To have an outstanding personality it is important that you have proper dressing sense.
Communicate
One of the most important aspects of your personality is communication. The way you start a conversation matters. Using big words and speeches do not matter as long as you have a thorough knowledge about the language. A decent and simple manner of speaking works everywhere- at your workplace, in an interview or in a party. Being a good listener is as important as being a good speaker. Also, when to speak is more important than what to speak.
Opinion
There is nothing more tiresome and irritating than trying to talk to someone who has no opinion on anything. However, if you have an uncommon point of view or differing opinion, you are more interesting and stimulating to be with.
Appreciate and Acknowledge
There is no man born without faults. To identify and develop what is good about you, it is important to first admit and acknowledge your setbacks. There are not many who have the ability to accept that they are not perfect. Also, appreciating others on a topic where you lack is not easy. Doing that would set you apart from the rest. Struggling to take credit for things you did not have a part in, is a characteristic of the weak. Discover your weaknesses, get inspired by those who are a master at it, and make it your strength.
Nobody like being left behind. People with great personalities like being in the company of others. That is what set them apart from the others.
Your personality plays a vital role in your life.
Be it your job, family function or any other situation- having a magnetic personality is what everyone desires.
