I am the type of person who will stress out over the little things, but one of the main causes of stress is my new life in college, work, and balancing my social life. Therefore to overcome stress, in my life I need to learn how to balance it, by relying on routines. Sometimes I will have to make different decisions from deciding whether to go hang out with friends or work on homework. If I rely on a routine, for example, going to work, working on homework, visiting with friends at a certain time a day, it can help save my stress for the bigger decisions in my life. It is also important for me to remember that taking some time to do something that I find interesting is a good thing as well. Schedule a day or an hour to just relax and talk with friends. By scheduling a break, it can help by making me feel less stressed and more energized to work harder and think clearer. Saying that, I need to remember to say "NO"! At times in my life, I will take on more than I can handle and regret it later. When taking on too much that is when I begin to stress. I need to learn my limits and stick to them. If a situation comes up where it is just an I "want" to do that, but I really do not have the time, Say "NO". It will just end up saving me stress in the long
As human beings, we different from one another. We are created with a lot of character traits. We all can gain knowledge about our own personalities, we develop our perceptive about strengths and weaknesses, and clarify what we truly value as individuals. The Myers Brigg personality assessment classified me as an Introvert, Sensing, Feeling, and Perceiving (ISFP) personality type. Results showed slightly Introvert 16 %, sensing 12%, feeling 19%, and perceiving 3%. Throughout this paper I will analyze the diverse parts of my own personality traits and how those traits have effected both my personal and my working environment.
One of them being conscientiousness. Conscientious people are very driven and orderly. They set goals and firm plans to achieve these goals. Rarely are they spontaneous or disorganized. My score within the Big Five Personality Profile was moderate for conscientiousness. I would say that I do exhibit some of these characteristics. I can be very organized and reliable. As a weakness, I find that I am not always a self-starter. I will set goals and stick to them, but need that push from others to get started. For instance, I was given the opportunity to work on an exciting new project at work that involves direct feedback from employees that I would personally deliver to upper management. This would be a big responsibility as I would be representing hundreds of employees and voice the current concerns of our group. I was asked to think it over. While processing the position, three others volunteered and I lost out of the opportunity. I took my time and wasn’t as organized in my decision making, therefore I missed out greatly.
A person’s personality allows us to see if we are passive or aggressive, along with why a person may be shy or outgoing (Lussier&Achua, 2013). My number one personality trait according to the profile assessment indicates that I am highest in conscientiousness, followed by adjustment, surgency, openness to new experiences, and agreeableness. As we continue to assess my leadership, all of these will play an important role in how I continue to be a strong leader with other motivating factors.
The DiSC profile system is a specialized profile assessment system. It is designed to provide takers with a clue into which personality category they fall. Each characteristic is carefully laid out to determine which profile best suits you. In brief, the profile consists of four categories that include dominance, influence, steadiness and conscientiousness. Each profile consists of a description of various tendencies, the preferred environment where they feel most comfortable, the type of people they need to be associated with, and
My personality type is logistician(ISTJ). Some generally qualities are independent, logical, loyal, responsible, serious, organized, quiet and a rule follower etc. I found most of these qualities to be true about myself. I like working alone and think before I act. I need to have the facts before I set my k da to something. I'm pretty loyal since I keep things to myself and people can rely on me when they need some assistance. I am kind of quiet when I don't know where I am at or who I'm going to be dealing with. I don't like to be social and make conversations to others. I stay by myself until someone comes to me and speaks first. I can be serious at times but I'm a goofball and I like to be silly and sarcastic. I'm also a tile follower I
One experience in my life where I was successful and used these specific personality dimensions was when I was a Production Supervisor at a fast paced food manufacturing plant. I learned the process inside and out which enabled me to step in and help out when needed at many levels of the production process. The trust that I gained and willingness to step in and help at any level also gave me respect and trust which in a goal oriented fast paced production
With the results of the Profile Scores, I do agree that it identified me accurately. My top three scores were conventional, investigative, and social. When someone is conventional, that person likes to follow set guidelines and routines. Also, they prefer working with information and paying attention to details instead of coming up with ideas. Investigative people like to search for facts or figure out problems. They like to think rather than doing physical work and typically work well with a leader. Lastly, people with social interest like to work with people more than working with objects or by themselves. They typically like to give advice, teach, or even be of service to people. Although I feel I do not completely identify with each score, I can attest that all three of these scores does identify me

Many of those false promises can destroy relationships and cause trust issues within an organization. The author gives advice intended to help those who have or may be thinking of making false commitments. Golin’s advice helped me reflect on my past mistakes, and how I could have handled those situations in a better way. Fear, arrogance, and confidence sometimes proves themselves to be one of the driving forces behind false commitments. In order to be able to comprehend the impact that these commitments can have, we must be able to look back and understand our

Life is full of deadlines, expectations, and events, whether in great magnitude or not, these things in life cause stress. Human bodies are made to experience stress and react to it. However, there’s a difference between a healthy amount of stress, aka Acute stress; used in “fight or flight” situations, and unhealthy stress, aka Chronic stress- Having so much stress that if not dealt with, leads to various health problems. In a survey done by the American Psychological Association in 2011, more than half (53%) of the population of adults in the United States said that they have had personal health problems due to high stress. Chronic Stress is no simple
Hello Classmates- The results of my assessment show that my personality type is an ISFJ, Introvered, Sensing, Feeling, Judging. So as in Introverter my main souce of energy is mainly in my own internal world. As a Sensor I believe information received directly from the external world. Feeling means that, I make decisions based on emotion. And Judging means that I organize my life and stick to a plan. Characterized above all by my desire to serve others, in a "need to be needed" way. I am often unappreciated, at work, at home, and play. I also prove over and over again that I can be relied on for loyalty and high quality work, but am also take for granted. Because of this I am horrible at delegate and would rather "do it myself if I want it done right." Although I might be treated like a doormat, I am unwilling to toot my own horn about my accomplishments because I feel that I believe credit is due, its somehow wrong to want some sort of acknowledgement or any sort of reward for doing my work.
I lived a relatively stress-free environment until I went off to college. I started to meet people that grew up in a rough childhood and I started to realize how lucky I was. This realization paired up with one of the most difficult quarters I had experience so far. The stress from school and this realization that so many of my fellow peers had experienced such a difficult upbringing caused me to have an anxiety attack for about a week. Luckily I live with two of my closest friends who were able to pick up on the fact that I was not acting myself and they helped me realize what was going on. The stress caused me to overthink everything with in turn only lead to more stress. I started to sleep less, eat less and that also only caused more stress. I vividly remember a time during that week when my roommate sat me down and said she wanted to show me something that could help relax me. She lead me through a guided meditation. At first I was skeptical. I had no idea how a simple exercise was going to help me but to my surprise it really did! Just by focusing on my breathing and shutting my mind off for a few minutes I was alleviated of my stress. Kelly McGonigal’s video on how to make stress your friend gave me a light of insight on how I can combat a situation like this in the future. She asked the audience to “view stress as a positive thing rather than a negative thing” and just by
Time management is a major way to reduce stress. If you can keep a schedule of the things you need to do and when you have to do them, this can open time for yourself. Try to focus on the important task and then do the little things. (3.) Many stress experts suggest that you begin your fight against stress by defining your values. (4.) Don’t think that everything has to be perfect. If you are a perfectionist you fuel a variety of stress-producing qualities. (4.)
