Making Use of Your Multiple Personalities

Written by Myrtis Smith


Continued from page 1

Depending onrepparttar circumstances, we all have a different face we put on to play a certain role.

Now imagine this: your personalities suddenly become real life people. They can walk and talk, but they stay in character ALLrepparttar 131066 time. For example, The Organizer from work behavesrepparttar 131067 same way at home and around friends.

So what would happen, if you and all of your "real life" personalities took a road trip? You’re stuck inrepparttar 131068 car for 10 hours really getting to know each other. What drives each one? What are their strengths and weaknesses? What could they learn from one another? What skills does The Manager possess that could benefit The Wife? What sensitivities does The Friend display that The Colleague could mimic?

Each of our personalities helps us be successful in our relationships and various circumstances. But each of our personalities does not need to be confined to a specific situation. Your team members could use some ofrepparttar 131069 compassion you show your kids. Your marriage could use some ofrepparttar 131070 creativity you display at work. So, don’t be afraid: let your personalities out to play, no matter where they are.

4. Get a real performance evaluation. No matter how high your self-esteem is or how great you think you are,repparttar reality is that your success is highly dependant upon how other people perceive you. If your company does not do periodic performance reviews ask for one. And don't just seek praise (although that may be useful information when it comes time for a salary adjustment), but also get 2 or 3 areas for improvement. Ask for specific suggestions and follow up in a few months to check your progress. Performance evaluations are not only useful for finding your weaknesses, but should you find yourself in a job interview, you can use specific examples from your review to highlight your strengths.

5. Invest in your personal development. Take a class. Attend a conference. Learn a new computer program. The minute you stop trying to improve yourself isrepparttar 131065 minute you stop growing. Your personal success will depend upon you making an investment of time and sometimes money. Even if your company does not offer any training, its worthwhile to makerepparttar 131066 investment in yourself. And if your company does offer any kind of training, then (and I apologize for repparttar 131067 insult) you'd be a fool not to take advantage of it.
