1. How do you describe your scores on Mini IPIP Scale? Do you think the results are accurate?
Why?
After finding out what my scores in Mini IPIP Scale, I may say that it is accurate. In the
result, I am low in extraversion which is correct. I love spending time with myself only and can
stand a day without talking. I only have a few friends, I can’t talk to other people that I don’t
know and I hate social gatherings,open forums and parties because it is really hard for me to
socialize with others. And in the openness category, my score is high. I always want to try new
things and love to appreciate those things. I always imagine what the things will turnout. I easily
get curious and interested in things that are new to me like for example, we will eat at our
restaurant, when I see the new menu I will order it and try what it tastes like. In agreeableness,
my score is also high. Honestly, I always cooperate with the group that I belong to. I get along
with them and give my full support to them. I avoid arguments and chaos and just be kind to
others. In terms of conscientiousness, my score is also high. I am always careful about what I’m
doing. To be honest, I have this experience that I’m reckless on what I am saying without
knowing that I hurt them with those words that I think is nonsense. Since then, I've always been
careful with my words and actions. I think before I speak and consider others. And lastly is for
the neurotism which my score is low that means I am calm at all times and more emotionally
stable. I always think positive and live happily. I always think about the bright side of all things. I
throw my worries away and just be happy.
Personality is the characteristic patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that make a
person unique. Every personality of the people describe who they are and how they act in the
community.
Before, I believed that personality can’t be changed like if you are an introvert then you’ll
stay to be an introvert your whole life but an event in my life changed that’s point of view. This
made me realize that personality can be changed according to what you want and some factors
that affect your personality like society, being discriminated against, age and even those people
around you. The changes might be to the better or worse personality. A person also receives
feedback from other groups about their own personality. This is a driving force of change
because the individual has social motivations to change his or her personality. This factor has a
huge impact on a person because they are like judging who you are and what they want you to
be. This factor is what I experience because of the people around you, you can change yourself
or may I say that they can change who you are .It has also been shown that major positive and
negative life events can predict changes in personality. In terms of age, we all know that ageing
is also a part of shifting our personality. The more we age the more we will be matured, more
understanding etc. Like when you are in your 90’s age some may say that you're grumpy
because you are old. And when you are in your 20’s, your agreeableness, a trait associated
with being warm, generous and helpful. But still, it is up to you if you want to change yourself,
for the better or for the worse, it is your personality to choose.
“No amount of self improvement can make up any lack of self acceptance.”--Robert
Holden
As the time passes, our personality develops and even improves to be the better
version of yourself. When someone says that he or she has a good personality we intend to
think that they are likeable, interesting and pleasant to be with. Everyone wants to be attractive
to others and to have a good personality is more valuable than a good look. While we are
enhancing our looks, we can also have the ability to improve and develop our personality. The
first thing to improve your personality is to be a good listener, there is nothing more appealing
than having someone who will listen to you; second is that be a good conversationalist, this will
test how much you read and know and learn how to talk with others; third is have an opinion
because there is nothing more awesome than trying to open up and sharing of thoughts to
others; fourth is meet new people because by meeting new people will help you to be more
understanding and broadens your horizon; next is always have a positive outlook and attitude,
who wants to meet and be with a person that have negative personality instead of a person with
a positive outlook and positive vibes; then, be fun and happy because if you have a gloomy
personality how would you have friends and meet new people so be happy and cheerful and
lastly and the most important is to be yourself and accept who you are because if you don’t
accept yourself then who will so accept first and be honest to yourself. In that way, people that
you would meet and the people around you will accept you fully just like how you accept
yourself.
Personality and self sounds like they are the same but they are not. Self is generally thought
of as our individual perception of our behavior, abilities and unique characteristics. A metal
picture of who you are as a person. Your sense of who you are,you identity is self, yourself. It is
a general term used to refer to how someone thinks about, evaluates and knows themselves.It
is an individual person that has their own reflective consciousness. It refers to the “I”. Self-
concept is the self consists of attributes and personality traits that differentiate us from the other
individual. While the personality is defined as the characteristic sets of behavior, cognitions, and
emotional patterns.In daily life the term personality is very freely used by people with different
meanings. Some people prefer that personality is about physical appearance like height, skin
color, shape of the face and weight and some think that personality refers to intelligence,
activeness, the way they talk and walk. Personality is the characteristic patterns of thoughts,
feelings, and behaviors that make a person unique. Every personality of the people describe
who they are and how they act in the community. It embraces moods, attitude and opinions and
is most clearly expressed in interactions with other people. We may say that personality is
stable like we can’t change overnight. If there are changes these are very limited and slow.
Somehow personality changes by trauma or life changing events that happen in your life.
As a human, we have the ability to see ourselves from the outside and our personality
inside. We act according to the revolve and rotation of the earth. We observe and even reflect
on what others do and also on what we do. The self is the shelter of our personality.
“Who am I?” Commonly, when someone asks me that question my answer will be my
name without thinking that there is a deeper meaning to that question. This question plays in
my mind like hide and seek because this question is seeking for an answer but still hard to find.
“I’m Jociel '' is my common answer when someone asks me “who am I?”. But this
question is finding more and more information from us. Our personality and ourselves. It is like
evaluating ourselves and knowing what is our purpose.
If you are going to ask my friends that I am kind, thoughtful and like a little child because
of my height and the babyface of mine. But if I will be the one to answer I will say what my
friends say because I think that is me. I think I showed them who I really was, what am I and
what type of personality I have. I am true to myself. I know that I am an introverted type of
person that hates crowds, gatherings and parties, I am cheerful and fun to be with, I am talkable
to but with my friends only, I’m always open to anyone who needs me and I always consider
what other people’s feelings. I am also calm most of the time because for me being calm or
having calmness in yourself will guarantee you that you can do all things and the result is
excellent. And the most important part of me that I am proud of is that I always see the bright
side even when I'm in the darkness. Like whenever I have a problem , I always find a way to
solve it.
Being true to yourself and accepting who you are will always be the key for you to be accepted
in society.
