Personality Development Tips

Let us go through some tips for enhancing one’s personality:

• Smile a lot- Nothing works better than a big smile when it comes to interacting with people around. Do not forget to flash your trillion dollar smile quite often. Believe me, it works! As they say “a smile is a curve that sets everything straight”.

  A smiling face wins even the toughest soul. Wear your smile while interacting with others. Smile not only helps in enhancing an individual’s personality but also winning other’s heart.

• Think positive- It is really essential to think positive. Remember there is light at the end of every dark tunnel. Do not always think negative as it not only acts as a demotivating factor but also makes an individual dull and frustrated. Don’t get upset over minor things. Be a little flexible and always look at the broader perspectives of life.

• Dress Sensibly- Dressing sensibly and smartly go a long way in honing one’s personality. One needs to dress according to the occasion. How would a female look if she wears a sari to a discotheque? Obviously ridiculous! No matter how expensive your sari is, you can’t wear it to a night club or a pub where everyone is dressed in smart casuals. Price has nothing to do with smart dressing.

  An individual who is well dressed is respected and liked by all. No one would take you seriously if you do not wear suitable clothes fitting with occasions. Do take care of the fit of the dress as well.

  An individual should wear clothes as per his/her body type, height, physique and so on. Someone who is bulky would not look very impressive in body hugging clothes. It is not necessary that something which looks good on your friend would also look good on you.

  Wear the right make up. You do not have to apply loud make up to look good and attractive. Even minimal make up, if applied sensibly can really make you stand apart from the rest.

• Be soft-spoken- Do not always find faults in others. Fighting and quarrelling lead to no solution. Be polite with others. Be very careful of what you speak. Avoid being rude and short tempered.

• Leave your ego behind- An individual needs to hide his ego everywhere he goes. Be it office or workplace you need to leave your ego behind if you wish to win appreciation from others. An individual who is good from within is loved by all.

• Avoid Backbiting- Backstabbing and criticizing people are negative traits which work against an individual’s personality. Learn to appreciate others. If someone has done some extraordinary task, do not forget to give a pat on his/her back. Believe me; the other person will speak high of you even when you are not around. Do not spread unnecessary rumours about someone.

  An individual should not try to interfere too much in someone’s personal life. Dishonesty, cheating, lies tarnish your image and people start avoiding you in the long run. If your friend is seeing someone, you have absolutely no rights to make his/her affair national news.

• Help others- Do not always think of harming others. Share whatever you know. Remember no one can steal your knowledge. Always help others.

• Confidence- Confidence is the key to a positive personality. Exude confidence and positive aura wherever you go.

• A Patient listener- Be a patient listener. Never interrupt when others are speaking. Try to imbibe good qualities of others.
