The concept of Personality Development

Personality is defined as the form of characteristic thoughts, feelings and


behavior that differentiate one individual from the other and it persists over time. It
is the integration of biological and experienced behaviours of an individual that
forms responses to environmental stimuli. To build a good personality, following
traits are listed to be most crucial (Fig. 1.):
1. Character traits
2. Behavioral traits
3. Attitude traits

Personality traits are different to each other and could be a mixture of both good and
bad. It’s always an individual’s choice to choose change of traits provided; we need
to endure the desire to make changes in life. Personality Development is a step
towards improvement and development of talents and potentials, enhancing quality
of life, realization of dreams and aspirations and facilitating employability. The
stages include formal and informal activities and the leaders and program managers
may realize the full potential of each individual in an existing group. Hence, this
process of improving or transforming the personality is called personality
development.

It is essential to understand that, pleasing personality is admiring, but this thought is
not readily accepted by most of the individuals. Personality development is
perceived only as training towards improving ones’ outlooks. This is a void
statement and it is must to realize that personality development is a quite broader
topic and it includes how one-self can educate them to have clean and neat social
personality with grace and groom. It also instructs them to enhance one’s
communication and interpersonal skills. Objectives of life without these important
skills will be futile to head towards success. Benefits of personality development
include the following keys:

 Self-Confidence
