Image and Personality
âThe trick is being able to get outside of yourself and work from outside and watch yourself as an observer.â
- Virginia Wade
We are impressed about the personality of some great people. We say that so and so has a good image. What gives a person a good image and personality? This is an important question. Have you seen when someone walks, others just get up? When someone asks you something, you cannot refuse. What gives them this advantage?
In schools students undergo what is called a personality development programme. Parents expect the school to develop the personality of their wards in a workshop lasting for a week! The irony is no one can develop anyoneâs personality. You have to understand that knowingly or unknowingly you are building your own personality and image.
Your personality and image is a result of all the activities and behaviours that you display day in and day out. These activities and behaviours are shaped by your attitude, feelings and emotions.
One way to build a positive image and personality is to understand what parameters make them and try to display such external behaviours which reflect the same.
In the following pages I will be discussing some traits which build positive image and personality. I strongly recommend that after reading each chapter; do something every week to integrate them into your everyday life.
