Personality and Decision Making

    Written by: Helen Hawver
    Adapted by Myesha Davis
What is Personality?
 Have you ever heard someone refer to someone’s
  personality?
    How were the references made?
         Maybe it was said that they have a great personality, or that
           they could be more friendly
 Personality is the combination of characteristics
  that makes you different from every other person
   – We often summarize someone’s personality with
     words (ex: outgoing, aggressive, happy, funny)
   •   Would you say that personalities are more complex than a word?
What is Personality?
 Personality Components
   – There are three categories: emotional, social, and intellectual
       • Your heredity and environment both affect these components
 Emotional
   – Everyone feels the same basic emotions (happy, sad, fearful), but
     everyone responds to them differently
 Social
   – How people relate to others and act around them
 Intellectual
   – Influenced by the mind and how it works
 All of these become apparent through behavior
   – You must get to know someone first before you label their
     personality
       • Someone may be quiet in class, but very outgoing in a social setting
What impacts your personality?
 Self-Esteem is the              Self-Concept is how
  value, or importance,            you define who you
  you place on yourself            are
   – It can be high, low, or    – Sometimes called self-
     somewhere in between         image or self-identity
   – Many things affect       To help develop your
     your self-esteem          self-concept, focus on
      • Success, thoughts
        about strengths and        your strengths rather
        weaknesses, or the way     than your weaknesses
        people react to you        – Danger comes with
   – Your self-esteem will           hearing and believing
     fluctuate from time to          negative messages
     time
What impacts your personality?

Self-esteem and self-concept also influence
 your behavior, well-being, and your
 personality
When you feel good about yourself, you
 have more confidence- this will show in
 your personality
High self-esteem and concept enables you to
 make the best of your life without becoming
 arrogant and without harming others
Ways to Boost Your Self-Esteem

 Learn to accept praise              Learn from what you do
   – People praise because you          – See mistakes as learning
     deserve it…don’t put                 experiences
     yourself or your                   – Don’t label yourself as a
     accomplishment down                  failure
 Focus on your strengths             Use your strengths to help
   – Everyone is good at               others
     SOMETHING                          – You will feel better by
 Accept yourself as you                  using your strengths to
  are                                     help others
   – You are not perfect and          Take responsibility for
     you have flaws…your               your own life
     friends aren’t perfect either      – Learn how to deal with and
     and you accept them, so              manage demands placed
     accept yourself!                     upon you
Realizing Your Potential

 Potential is the capability of becoming
  something more than you are right now…you are
  working on your personal development
 Everyone is born with potential…it is just a
  matter of you discovering what you can do with
  it
 You can become sidetracked with your potential
  through attitudes and circumstances
 Don’t fill your life with regrets about things that
  you could have done or accomplished
The Decision Making Process

This process is used to help you make the
 best choice when faced with a decision.
You should base your decision on your
 values and beliefs, as well as using your
 self concept and self esteem.
It lets you focus on what is important to
 you, and helps you to avoid negative
 outcomes
The Decision Making Process

1. Identify the decision to be made
  –   Being clear about the issue will produce clear
      outcomes
2. List all possible outcomes
  –   Even if they might produce negative outcomes, you
      need to make yourself aware of what could happen
3. Evaluate the pros and cons of each option
  –   Don’t forget to include everyone who would be
      affected by your decision…not just yourself
The Decision Making Process

1. Make a choice
  –   From your list of options, select the one that will
      have the most positive outcome
2. Act on your decision
  –   Gather your resources and carry out the plan
3. Evaluate your choice
  –   Check out the results…was it the best choice? What
      would you do differently next time? Take
      responsibility for the results.
