With time, we grew up, and our personalities started to develop. Personality is our character traits, defined by how we think, feel, behave, and think about other people. Personality growth takes place through variety of factors and self-reflection.

Our personalities grow according to environment, time, situation, and responsibility. In many cases, it can be seen that one is responsible enough at a young age, while many are older but do not care about responsibility. I will share with you all these things about the personal growth that I have been able to do.

My Personality Growth in 2022

Self-Compassion

First of all, I learned to have compassion for myself. I know all my wishes will never come true, that doesn't mean I'll stop trying. But when I can't achieve something even after trying so hard, I get frustrated. I try my best to have something positive about me.

Earlier, when I was a failure at something, I used to get very disappointed, but now I understand that there is a need to be a failure sometimes in life. Many new experiences can be gained from this. Now if I fail at something, I can convince myself that maybe what I wanted was not good for me, so I didn't get it.

I lost 120k BDT approx 1,500$ USD in an online business. But I have no regrets because, through these losses, I gained new experience in business management. Self-compassion has helped me build my self-image and become more motivated.

Resilience

I have learned to understand well how to keep morale strong in the face of a hundred adversities. One thing I have experienced in life is that if we get scared by bad situations and don't face them, then we will face more bad and terrible situations in the coming days.

I have learned to deal with bad situations instead of avoiding them. My whole family, including me, was in a very bad situation due to the COVID-19 situation. where all our business and life goals were about to end. But through persistence and perseverance, I managed to bounce back.

Although I was a bit scared at first, I learned to be resilient when I realized that fear made me more vulnerable. I have been able to stay with my family in the midst of many adverse situations. I reorganized all our family businesses and got good results.

Emotional intelligence & Control

I have learned to have emotional intelligence. I can understand my own emotions, control them, and understand how others feel about me. For me, it is like a skill due to which I am able to maintain good communication and good relationships with people, and through it I am able to make good decisions.

Earlier, I used to believe anyone and anything very easily, and many times I was wrongly guided. Life means experience. Now I understand how I should react and how to control my emotions.

As the eldest son of the family and a businessman, I have to interact with many types of people. Through emotional intelligence, I am able to build good relationships with everyone. It is helping me grow in my personal life as well as my professional life.

Open-mindedness

The personality I have developed in myself is open-mindedness. It helped me be creative and stay updated with time.

Even if I disagree with a person, I try to listen to that person's perspective and point of view. Through this, my relationship with any person deepens.

I always try to get out of my comfort zone and do something new. Try to learn a new skill, a new business, or a new hobby. Try to see any problem from different angles and try to solve it through creative ideas. It helped my personality grow.

Conclusion

Personality growth does not mean changing oneself in such a way that only one's personal interests are given the highest priority. Personality growth occurs when other people feel safe around you and can trust you. If we wish for others what we wish for ourselves, the world will become like heaven.
