To speak of personality, is to try to answer one of the longest-lasting dilemmas of humanity. Who are we? Together with where do we come from? and where are we going? Several thinkers have tried to arrive at a concrete answer, until now, no agreement has been reached and it seems that we still will not have the necessary technology to find an answer that satisfies 99% of the population
I join the search and expose my little theory of personality.
What are the factors that most influence our behavior?
Why do we act like that?
About us?
The great theory
Before continuing with this article, we want to clarify that we will not expose in depth something related to the theories of other authors, out of respect for their hard work.
This post is only the result of several days of reflection on this, of those moments where we immerse ourselves in our mind to try to make sense of this world. Well, let's start:
Biopsychosocial beings
When thinking about personality, the biopsychosocial model reverberates in our heads. We said that we were not going to get into specific theories, but let's think about what factors influence our way of being? The biopsychosocial model is the most general, since it covers all from a superficial point, then we will tell you why:
Bio.- This abbreviation refers to all the biological aspects of our being. Why does it influence the personality? If we remember, from a young age we are the faithful reflection of our parents or relatives. Although we have not lived with them as much as to have their "tricks".
Ej.- "Just as angry as the father"
Psycho.- The psychological influences our personality, since we all have a different perspective on a topic. We can put an orange in front of 100 people and many will say something more than "It's an orange". Everything different, all because of the psychological factors
Social.- From small we are adapting to interact with the beings around us, whether we like it or not, we are acquiring various characteristics of our parents, friends or even a community or entire country. When we talk about English punctuality, we do not mean that the whole country is extremely punctual, but living with many people who are, can affect our personality.
The world is in our head
All the knowledge that we are acquiring on a day-to-day basis is changing us, neither for good nor for bad, just changing. One proof of this is to enter Facebook and observe that memory from 5 years ago. Not only has our physique changed, but mentally we are leagues away.
This is due to the constant experiences we experience and the knowledge we are acquiring, whether reading, listening to other people's experiences or any other option that makes us learn. Our personality changes with the passage of time, maybe we do not notice it, but Facebook can remind us
Get to know us to get where we want
It may be linked to the previous one, however, there is a small detail that differentiates it, that is why we want to give it a special place in this article.
Self-knowledge is an important factor that influences our personality, because it is not just about putting all the information you can to our head. Knowing each other will help us to filter that information and question which is still useful, discarding what no longer fits with us.
To define the personality we must try to cover all the possible factors, which would take us a whole book (let's ask the experts how it went with it). In this article, we have only considered superficially those that for the Emeeseese team can be considered more important.
We want to close with a sentence of our authorship:
We are what we do. We do what we feel. We feel what we think. We think according to all the knowledge and experiences that we are acquiring in the day to day, which are in constant change.
