What Is Personality — Few Interesting Facts You Can’t Ignore
Are you an introvert or an extrovert?
Whenever we think about our personality, we try to categorize ourselves — either an introvert or an extrovert. If we talk a lot with our friends or family or in our work or a social event — we believe we are an extrovert, and if we do the opposite thing, we categorize ourselves as an introvert.
But is it true? Is it that simple to define ourselves so easily? I think it is not. There are no such types of extrovert or introvert personality.
Sounds interesting? Let’s try to figure out what is the actual meaning of personality.
Since childhood — we faced so many incidents in our lives, that we observed in our surroundings. We develop some conception about things in our minds based upon what we listen to, what we observe, and most importantly, what kind of mentality we adopt during our upbringing.
We all have a basic nature. Well, you can call it our animal instinct upon which we sometimes act. And this is the very first thing that we have had since our childhood. Think about your childhood when you did something stupid without thinking about its result.
But with age, the situations that we experience — throughout our teenage make us the person we are now — the so-called polished or civilized version.
Like when your friends tell you, oh you are very talkative — and you start to develop that concept in your mind. Or, if we talk less, they just call us an introvert.
What if a talkative person can’t do anything or say anything in a tough situation? But an introvert takes charge of the situation and manages it extremely well. What will you say then?
Basically, I am trying to tell you there is no such introvert or extrovert thing. It depends upon how we act in a situation.

Now, you might be wondering, then what is personality. Well, our basic nature is not different from animals. With time, we just have started to think like we are human and we have control over every situation.
But that is not true. If you are starving for food, you will react exactly like an animal. We will forget all our manners within a second when we see a plate full of food. And this exactly our basic nature is or you can say it our actual personality is.
