What Is Your Personality?

Knowing what your personality is can help you grow. The better you know  yourself, the more confident you will feel in life. You will also be able to see if you need to change anything. If there is something that reduces your quality of life. Analyze yourself to find out what personality you have. You may have several traits from different personality types, but there is probably one where you fit in best and with whom you can best identify yourself. 

Perfectionist and critic

There are people who are a little obsessed with perfection. They are very rational  and use discipline in an extreme way. They are authoritarian and strict with themselves. They can be annoying to others as they try to fix things that do not look right in others. They are rarely happy with anything and there is always something that can be improved. And therefore they most often feel anger and rarely smile.

Loyal and dependent

They greatly value trust and sincerity. They are very kind and are passionate about others. If anything characterizes them, it is that they offer loyalty. One can trust them completely as they are very responsive and responsible. They have a special sensitivity, and when they feel connected to another, they become dependent on them. Sometimes they make the other person the center of their lives.

 Challenging and defiant

These are the people who never get along with their surroundings. “Swimming against the current” would be their most prominent feature. They need to command, control and stick out. Although it is for their differences. They may appear as Kloge-Åger. They are not affected at all by the opinions of others. They have their ideas and bring them to life, even if they are a little “uncommon”. They will be led and defiant if their orders are not followed. They want to be dictators  and want to be leaders, regardless of the cost. They never express their feelings, they think they are invincible. Typically, they do not like most people who are around them.

Caring and helpful

They are more interested in whether their loved ones are thriving than in what they themselves are doing. They worry excessively about the attention and care of others. They are very generous, a little overprotective and very loving. Such people are sensitive, caring, selfless and love to serve others. Without expecting anything in return. They like the feeling of being needed.

Enthusiastic and outgoing

They stand out as being very active, happy, spontaneous and funny people. They love to socialize and start new projects. They are ambitious and impulsive. They need to have constant and varied activity around them and therefore they have many sides. They are afraid of getting bored and need to fill up their time and always be in touch with other people.

Individualistic and introverted

Unlike the previous personality, an individualistic and introverted person is a quiet type. They prefer to be alone with their ideas and projects instead of being in social groups. They are respectful, serious, imaginative, discreet and have a good intuition. Introverted people are often very  creative. If they use their creativity, it helps them get a job in the artistic world. Since they are not so happy to socialize, they have not developed abilities to be with others. Therefore, they may be shy, insecure and not very spontaneous. 

Researcher and creator

They are characterized as being very independent. They want to create, explore and discover that which does not yet exist.  They are like a sponge in life. They use what they learn to see beyond the framework and are innovative. They are typically isolated with their thoughts and develop their knowledge. It may seem a little strange sometimes. They are passionate about learning, and by being this, they become successful professionals and experts in their field.

Leader and winner

They are very confident in themselves. They are smart, familiar and know how to use themselves.  They  accept and like themselves so they are sincere and nice people. They adapt to any situation and challenges do not scare them. Their emotional intelligence stands out, so they always achieve success in all aspects of life. They are nice, honest, charming people. They are respected and admired by others.

Peaceful and calm

They are very quiet, stable and balanced people. They want to bring peace to all conflicts. Their simplicity, humility and patience stand out. They do not like bad environments and therefore they do everything to bring harmony into their environment. They are spiritual beings and healers. People around them want to deal with them as they gain support, kindness, positivity and relaxation.

No personality type is better or worse. They all have their good and bad sides. Anything in abundance can be harmful and therefore things in balance are always a positive thing. What is your special personality type?
