Reflection On Personality

Personality is something I often think about. To me, it is one of the most important aspects of an individual, in terms of Human Relations. When dating, we assess our prospective mate’s “personality” – is it good, is it bad, are there components of it we cannot live with? When we have children, we ponder what type of “personality” they will have. Will it be like moms or will it be like Uncle Larry’s? Yet, it wasn’t until I took the Jungian Typology Personality Assessment that I made an honest connection to my personality and my tendencies as it relates to school or work. Moreover, previously, I had not deeply considered how my personality affects my style of conflict resolution. As an ESFJ (extraverted, sensing, feeling, judging) I have a lot of positives, making me a great candidate for management but I also have areas of weakness that I must remain cognizant

The essay demonstrates your ability to write clearly and concisely on a selected topic and helps you distinguish yourself in your own voice. What do you want the readers of your application to know about you apart from courses, grades, and test scores? Choose the option that best helps you answer that question and write an essay of no more than 650 words, using the prompt to inspire and structure your response. Remember: 650 words is your limit, not your goal. Use the full range if you need it, but don't feel obligated to do so. (The application won't accept a response shorter than 250 words.)

I am flexible and easy-going person who loves to participate in conversations. However, I am not an extrovert. Moreover, I always find myself sensitive to issues around me. I love to around children and like to be playful and active participant in different games. One aspect of my personality I would like to share is that I am ambitious and I am always looking for improvement in my work. Thus, I believe I am going through personal development at college which is shaping my personality in a more positive

Personality is defined as “a) the sum total of the physical, mental, emotional, and social characteristics of an individual. b) the organized pattern of behavioral characteristics of the individual” (Dictionary.com, 2010). Whether we realize it or not, personality defines us as people. There are many facets to my personality,

My personality traits are high levels of agreeableness which makes me cooperative working a team. It portrays my level of friendliness and kindness to others making me empathic. I am an average scorer when it comes to neuroticism and conscientiousness, which on one side gives me only an average tendency to understand and undergo unoptimistic emotions of stress and anxiety. I am fairly frank and appreciate change by being more creative curious, insightful, and informed. My conscientiousness skills reflects to my skill of being thoughtful, proactive and organised.

When I first enrolled in the class, I didn’t know what was to be expected of me. I was scared the first time I logged onto the computer to see what the course entailed. Then, things changed and I was comfortable with my new lifestyle of doing work on the computer. I began by making myself a schedule with things that I wanted to accomplish each and every day. As I continued to do this and the end of the course started to become visible I started to grow more and more comfortable. I am happy with how everything has gone throughout this semester. I have learned a lot of things this year, as well as being refreshed with things that I obviously struggled with. This course developed me into a better writer; educated me on how to begin the

As stated previously, we have been discussing personality in depth in lab and lecture. We have learned about the five major perspectives of personality. These include trait, biological, psychodynamic, humanistic, and learning/social-cognitive. I feel like each one of these can explain how my personality has developed and how it still changes to this day. The trait perspective says that we receive certain characteristics that are influences from genetic predispositions. In simpler terms, we get our personality and certain characteristics from our parents. When examining my personality, this

Throughout the semester, the most significant learning outcome that I acquired the most knowledge of it, was to undertake a self-regulated project to address my own linguistic need by myself. I learned to focus on one specific project, that I believed that it could have been helpful for me to practice and improve my English writing. Since the start of the semester, I was always understanding well the instructions given to us for all our tasks, such as the Personal Project Design or Annotated Bibliography.

In the past year I have produced three different pieces of writing with different purposes and intended for different audiences, but they all share a common theme of family ties. The first piece of writing was a creative piece centred on fixing family bonds and bringing the family closer together. The creative piece was intended to entertain a more adult audience and was based around a real life even that happened when I was younger. The next piece was an exposition arguing the point of technology creating a divide between adult and child, it was made to inform and persuade the audience on my point of view, I chose this piece as it seemed a good topic to debate and related to the theme of family. The final piece was a magazine article, this piece was made to inform the audience of which holiday destinations are best for families and there is to do in the suggested towns or cities. In that the magazine piece was created for a target audience of parents with younger children. This piece is heavily linked to my creative piece as the knowledge I gained to create that piece was acquired through my travels as a kid and was based around what places I enjoyed most as a kid.

“I plan to give members of my committee more control over their initiatives,” I said before the senate body after my appointment as the new Academic Affairs Chair within the Student Government Association. Forever encapsulated into the meeting minutes was my bold idea: the Renaissance of the Academic Affairs Committee.

So, I don’t actually like remembering this one experience due to how I get all sad and broken inside once the subject is brought up once and a while by some non-autistic like me wanting to either get on my nerves, or just needs to complete their assignment for their current class. And thanks to many, many people that I’ve known that have pressured me to explain the aftermath of this incident, I said that I’ll give in to that once that certain time comes. And that time is now.

At the age of four, I was diagnosed with brain tumor. At first, the brain tumor only affected my vision, causing me too see double, but after sometime it affected me mentally too. My grades were getting worse and I could not retain any information. A moment in my childhood that holds much significance is when I was in grade three. Every week, my grade three teacher would assign us a reading from our history workbook and have us answer a few long questions for homework. I remember thinking how boring and difficult this would be because I disliked learning about history and hated reading and writing. The first time this was given, I did the work all by myself and got a terrible mark. In my workbook, there were a lot of negative comments and feedback, such as why I did not do the question right, when she taught it in class, how I did not use the question in my answer, how I did not have the proper structure or evidence to support my ideas and more. Having only negative feedback, while my peers got a “good job” or “good try” only made me feel useless and unsuccessful. My mom saw the mark and tried to help me the second time around. I developed a little sense of hope, thinking that my marks could now improve because my mom was going to assist me, but this was not the case. Instead of helping me understand the work, she would give me the answers and then expect me memorize it and use it to help me answer the next question. Unfortunately, this method proved

mindful that I am not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. In addition, I've been experiencing angst about writing in this style of writing; and using profanity-laced terms and whatnot!

Because I finished my hours a few weeks ago, I will be generally reviewing my time at Lacey Spring and reflecting on the impact the school had on me and the difference I made on their student’s lives in the classroom overall.

From the test, I realized I have a strong personality in agreeableness and sociability. Before the test, I did not realize that I had this strength and, therefore, it was underutilized. The sociability aspect will create better working relations with fellow students during the class group discussion and with the coworker, this will be extended in the future career. Additionally, I realized I have low emotional stability. This means I handle the situation based on the emotion and I am easily overpowered by emotion when making decisions (Phillipy, 2010).
