Who Are You REALLY? Discover the Truth Behind Your Personality

[@hobowithawaterpistol9070]

Love listening to you guys share ideas! Regarding genetics verses environmental whether it’s a mix or not, I don’t know if personality traits are genetic at all! I’m leaning more and more towards it being completely environmental because in our formative years we are studying body language and character traits of our parents or who ever is present growing up! As you grow up you can choose to be just like the ones in your life that you admire for example your father, or you can change how and what you do in your life absolutely and still look a lot like your father! Of course people with bad upbringings of abuse also experience character traits, but they have a choice to change them! I use to be an introvert for years, but I came out my shell on my own and I’ve always been interested in people, but now I can communicate with anyone because I no longer care about sounding or looking like a fool! I use to be intimidated by people and their professions or if they were more educated than me, but then I learned to be curious and ask questions and if I get stumped and can’t really come up with an intelligent question, I shift to emotional questions. So if someone is an Aeronautical engineer and likes to talk, I will ask something like “so when you think back to when you first started and you had to choose to do this instead of playing for the Yankees, what was it that inspired you to be an aeronautical engineer?” Now, I find they will talk more than ever and with a smile! My connection to this person is deeper than any info that he could have given me and yet I still will learn something new that day! I believe patterning is a natural and necessary skill to be able to first say to your brain is that person a threat, then what do they want, what I can gain from them, or are they insignificant (for lack of another word) in this moment? Of course we all know after passing many people we don’t have to stop and think about this with every person. We’ve trained our brain to analyze someone very quickly and put them in a box and move on! You always have something to gain when encountering any person, even if it’s only to know if they are a threat or not. Thanks for sharing this video!
