We shape our personality in many ways either it’s kids in the playgrounds, the values, neighborhoods, parents job, family problems, bullying, or siblings. Everyone is different some have more impact that other. The way children see the world by what’s around them, children see everything good or bad.

So I kept getting bullies till I finish middle school. There was a point where I couldn't take it anymore where I got a blade and started cutting not deep just until I saw blood like if a kitten scratch me, then I started doing drugs every time I had a chance, and my grades drop so I was skipping class. I was a rock bottom wondering who I can turn to. Till one day my sister saw my hand with scars and she got scared and wanted an explanation, I told her it was nothing and try covering up the scars. She wanted to help me but she didn’t know how so she told my parents. My sister put her problems aside and was helping me out by guiding me through the light. It was a lesson for all of us, for me I had to learn to defend myself and not let other knock me down, for my family is to always talk to one another and not ignore the problem before it is too late. When that incident happen everything changed for me I started being more distant from people, always had a serious face, confront the bullies, and took classes for boxing. I stand up for myself I wasn’t going to go back to that dark place anymore. If it wasn't for the bullies I wouldn't learn how to defend myself and still be the shy girl in the

The continuous support I have from my family influences who I am and is evident in the little things as I grew up. I learned the value of hard work through my dad when I would wake up early and watch Star Trek with him before he left for work at 5 am. I developed a love of learning from my mom who would read to my younger sister and me daily. I came to understand the power of vision from my older brother as he pursued his education and career growth while working as a aircraft maintainer in the
According to 16personalities.com(n.d.). My personality type is that of “The Campaigner” which is described as an extrovert that is made up of several individual traits such as extraverted, intuitive, feeling, prospecting, and assertive (para. 1). “ENFPs represent roughly 8% of the general population and are optimistic, energetic, and see life as full of possibilities” (The Champion, 2016, para.1). I think that discovering my personality type brought a lot of things to light for me that somewhat describe me as a whole.

The Prentice Hall’s Self-Assessment Online Library contained different assessments that revelead different scores for personality traits and their relation to the workplace. The assessment contained 3 areas of focus, individual evaluation of self, working with others, and life in organizations. After completing the assessments a score was calculated and results were provided. First, I will briefly discuss my results from the various assessments. Organization behavior is important to study in the workplace to understand different behaviors, roles and structure. If we can recognize our strengths, then we can identify our weakness. Identifying our weakness can allow opportunity for us to be effective employees, leaders, and enhancing our
Type A Personality or Type A Behavior Pattern (TABP) include typical responses of competitiveness, time urgency, and hostility. Type A’s normally strive towards a goal without feeling a sense of joy in their efforts or accomplishments.

Our personalities are what distinguish us from each other beyond our appearance; without them, we would all behave and react in the same way. Personality is the reason we are outgoing or introverted, persistent or blaze, and anxious or calm. We each have different levels of these competing characteristics that make us unique. But why are personalities so varied? Personality is determined by an array of factors from genetic and biological to the personal experiences and decisions we have faced from the day we are born. The complexity of our personalities cannot be simply explained, and for this reason there exists many different theories of how it’s developed and personality is still deeply under study. I went into this subject with an open-mind
Personality development is the development of the organized pattern of behaviors and attitudes that makes a person distinctive (Laberge, 2006). Adults, especially parents and teachers, are principal components of these environments and therefore play a powerful role in helping or hindering children in their personality and cognitive development (Morrison, 2007, p. 99). According to Erikson (2007), children’s personalities and social skills grow and develop within the context of society and in response to society’s demands, expectations, values, and social institutions, such as families, schools, and other child care programs (pp. 98-99). Children personality does not occur over night. They learn and experience new things in life and how they relate to these experiences affect their personality.
Characteristics a feature or quality belonging to a person, place or thing and serving to identify it. There are many personal characteristics that can define a person as an individual; some characteristics determined if a person is nice, disrespectful, intelligent, or not intelligent but it determines how a person interprets you. I believe that every individual has integrity as one of their characteristics, but my top three characteristics are Integrity, Compassion, and hard-working and for the person who carried me throughout my whole life “my brother” his characteristics would be his responsibility.
Personality takes many shapes and forms and is affected by many factors. My understanding of personality is simply a genetic and environmentally determined set of psychological traits that influence our reactions in the world around us. Genetic because our parents possess a certain set of psychological personality traits that we tend to have in common with them so therefore in my opinion there are heritable personality traits. Personality is environmental because we each have our own separate experiences in the world and these experiences help form our unique personality. Neo-Freudians such as Jung have given us a wide array of ideas of how they believe personality is developed and formatted. Jung in particular has a very interesting
