S.H.A.P.E - Part 4
‘Personality'
The weekend was an eventful one, spent a lot of time on the road, last I checked I spent 7 hours on the road crossing states.(If you like say its not much, that’s your own). It was one awesome road trip considering I am not a fan of road travel, one I’ve not had in a while.
It’s not been easy trying to piece thoughts together amidst work, business, life issues but I’m happy I am giving good content. I appreciate those who read my work and comment, privately commend and correct not forgetting my 'silent readers’😏. I see all of you, I say thank you!!!
I say well-done to every one who sacrifices time to pen down meaningful thoughts whether daily,weekly,monthly, yearly or when ever you feel like.

Today's piece will be centered around 'Personality'. This is the fourth letter 'P' from the S.H.A.P.E series, it's an entity and must be treated as such.
Going the way biological terms are usually broken down. The word is split into 'Person' and 'ality’.
Person
a person as an embodiment of a collection of qualities. (dictionary.com)
‘ality' — is a suffix!
Easy right?
Moving on...
It will not be new to say that "you express your personality’, but what you probably would have not known yet is "your personality depends on what you want it to be".
Not ignoring the fact that for a long period of your life you were shaped by the personalities of those (family, friends etc) closest to you and decided to keep theirs or carve out yours. Either ways a choice was made by you, consciously or unconsciously.
In order to truly understand 'personality' and how it affects your path either chosen or forced.

We have to know the different types of personality, and how they shape us. Individual personalities may be between on each of the five core traits;
- Extroversion
- Conscientiousness
- Agreeableness
- Openness
- Neuroticism
I may not be able to delve into details of each one but you can read more from - https://www.verywellmind.com/are-personality-traits-caused-by-genes-or-environment-4120707 -
So imagine, “Ade an extrovert (P) who while growing up has been helping his mom at her provision store(S), he loves the activities that that accompany selling(negotiations, prospecting)(H). Ade will go to any length to satisfy a customer(A), now he decides to becomes a sales man."
Most times it’s rare to find someone who connects all the dots. Most people in the world have two or three properly aligned and others are struggling.

The path to self achievement starts when all these dots are connected.
Know yourself…
