10 Ways To Improve Your Personality
Here are some ways we can accomplish this:
1. Be a better listener.
being an exceptional listener. Look at the eye of a person,
hang on their every word, and make them feel important.
There is nothing more appealing than having someone
listen to you intently making you feel like you're the only
person in the world.
2. Read more and expand your interests.
The more you read and cultivate new interests, the
more interesting you are to others. When you meet new
people it gives you the opportunity to share what you know
and to exchange your views with them.
3. Be a good conversationalist.
This relates to how much you read and know. Once you have much
to contribute, learn how to talk about it with others. No one can
read about or know everything, so it's refreshing to learn from
others those things we don't have the time to about read ourselves.

10 Ways To Improve Your Personality
4. Have an Opinion.
A conversation has nowhere to go if you have
nothing to expound on. If, however, you have
an uncommon point of view or differing
opinion, you are more interesting and
stimulating to be with socially. A unique
outlook expands everyone's perspective.
5. Meet New People.
Make the effort to meet new people especially
those unlike you. It not only exposes you to
different cultures and alternative ways of doing
things, it broadens your horizons.
6. Be yourself.
Molding yourself in order to fit in, or be
accepted, usually backfires. Since each of us
is unique, expressing that uniqueness is what
makes us interesting.

10 Ways To Improve Your Personality
7. Be supportive of others.
Being supportive is probably the most
endearing quality you can integrate
into your personality. Just as you
yourself welcome it, be the support for
others when they need it. We all love
a cheerleader in our corner; someone
who is encouraging, believes in us and
helps pick us up when we're down.
8. Have Integrity and treat people
with respect.
Being honest and true to your word will
bring you the admiration, respect and
gratitude of others. Nothing improves
a person's personality more
than integrity and respect - respect for
others, as well as respect for yourself.

9. Have a positive outlook and attitude.
Who wants to be around people who are negative,
complain a lot, or have nothing good to say? In
fact, most of us run when we see them coming.
Instead, be the kind of upbeat person who lights
up a room with your energy when you enter it. Do
it by looking for the best in people and things.
Smile warmly, spread good cheer, and enliven
others with your presence.
10. Be fun and see the humorous side of
life.
Everyone enjoys the company of someone who
makes them laugh, or smile, so look for
the humorous, quirky side in a situation - there
always is one. When you can add fun and
lightheartedness to an otherwise dull or gloomy
setting, others will naturally be attracted to you,
not to mention grateful.

remain calm and effective in high pressure situations, and help us avoid the problems of
long term stress.

bad – it all depends on how you take
it. The stress of exhilarating, creative
successful work is beneficial, while
that of failure, humiliation or infection
is detrimental."

either "fly" from the threat, or "fight" it. This energizes us, but it also
makes us excitable, anxious, and irritable.

Everyone reacts to stress differently. However, some common
signs and symptoms of the fight or flight response include:
Frequent headaches.
Cold or sweaty hands and feet.
Frequent heartburn, stomach pain, or nausea.
Panic attacks.
Excessive sleeping, or insomnia.
Persistent difficulty concentrating.
Obsessive or compulsive behaviors.
