Summary Core Personality
Understanding more about our own
personalities can help in how we
relate to the people close to us —
and help them understand us
better. It can also improve the way
we work and learn, as we know
more about our natural traits and
how we can work with them rather
than against them.
While you may not be able to help it if you are
having a bad day or if you don’t like doing a
particular thing, changing your attitude
changes everything. Complaining and sulking
will only make time drag on when doing an
unpleasant task. Singing a song in your head
or even humming makes it just a little easier
to deal with. Being a pleasant person helps
every day. Understanding examples of
personality traits is a great way to start the
journey into self discovery. Remember, if
you’re up for the challenge, you can make
positive changes to your personality type.
