Improved Essays
Some believe that the results of a survey can completely describe an individual’s personality. After completing both of the surveys I agree with this opinion. For the love style survey I was given at least a 36% in each of the five categories. For the Avoider category I received a 36%. For the Pleaser category I received a 79%. For the Vacillator category I received a 71%. For the Controller category I received a 43%. For the Victim category I received a 43%. For the animal survey I received similar results based on my personality. For the Lion section I received a 24. For the Otter section I received a 36. For the Golden Retriever Section I received a 32. For the Beaver I received a 32.
In my opinion all of the scores I received accurately

The biggest challenge I face is not being able to resolve conflicts when they arise. We both often look the other way to avoid starting a conversation with each other. Another challenge we face is not being able have a friendly conversation. I view this as very unhealthy because constantly avoiding interaction with someone can create social anxiety issues. On the other had there are a few opportunities that this issue presents. One opportunity I have is that I can practice escaping my comfort zone. Each time I say something to my roommate I make myself uncomfortable. This helps build character and mental strength. This will help with other situations such as public speaking because I will be used to doing things that make me feel uncomfortable. Another opportunity this situation presents is me improving my body reading skills. Being that my roommate and I don’t communicate verbally we have strong non-verbal skills. This ca drastically improve my abilities to understand how people feel without them having to tell …show more content…
If I completely change my mindset I will soon change my physical life. My first step to change the way I interact my family can drastically change the way I view my roommate. I believe that I look at my roommate the same way I look at my family members. I naturally avoid having conversations with family members and this has resulted in me doing the same to my roommate. The second step is changing my subconscious mind. I believe that this step will work through repetition. I am aware that if we do something for 21 days it becomes a habit. This is why I believe that surrounding myself with outgoing people will change my habits. The final step is changing the way I assume things. Assuming things isn’t bad depending on the situation. In my situation not assuming is best because I will have more knowledge about my roommate. This step is crucial for me if I want to improve our relationship. These three steps will completely eliminate the mental blocks that are causing this situations. Just being around talkative people will cause me to pick up their habits and revise my behavior. This will result in me becoming more outgoing around my roommate which in turn will end my unhealthy behavior once and for

    We are all familiar with those teen comedies following the same storyline where the awkward shy girl meets the boy of her dreams and ends up befriending everyone in school. Well, that girl is me, except I don’t get the boy or the insane popularity or the happy ending, not yet anyway. Maybe my life will find some parallels to those typical high school movies, but that time isn’t now. Moving definitely decreased my chances of that ever happening and transformed my perspective on the world around me to this day. I am a person who never liked change, so moving away from my friends and going to a new school was devastatingly terrifying.…

Previously, I did not notice when I would subconsciously look like I was unapproachable.

    Extraversion was the segment, which I scored the least on (7 out of 10). I fully agree with this being my weakest of the five sections, as I have the tendency to be a loner. I am a friendly individual; on the other hand I do not view myself as completely being sociable. I usually am quite person, until I am comfortable with the people around me and depending on the situation I am in. The negative aspect with reference to not being an extrovert is that it can hold me back from meeting new people, shy away from outing or new…

    Gardening was a ‘forced’ hobby for a good portion of my childhood. Since elementary school, I worked with my dad in our back yard; I would dig holes, carry bags of manure, and plant flowers and trees. I complained that it would be easier to go to the store and buy a bag of blackberries instead of toiling in the sun for hours to achieve the same thing. I never imagined that I’d end up gardening for fun. Every year, my brother and I would collect the fruits of our labor; every year, I’d appreciate my efforts more and more.…

    There are obvious reasons why our personality and behavior are connected. Our personalities are who we are and our behavior is how we act. How we act describes who we are as a person. Julian Rotter is an American psychologist that developed a social theory on personality and he once made a statement about the connection between a person’s personality and their behavior (Net Industries. 2015). Rotter stated, “Our behavior provides us hints on who we truly are, and our personality traits are given meaning by the way we behave (Rotter, J., 2008-2015.”…
