An individual’s personality refers to his/her appearance, characteristics, attitude, mindset and behavior with others.
Let us go through the importance of personality development.
Personality development grooms an individual and helps him make a mark of his/her own. Individuals need to have a style of their own for others to follow them. Do not blindly copy others. You need to set an example for people around. Personality development not only makes you look good and presentable but also helps you face the world with a smile.
Personality development goes a long way in reducing stress and conflicts. It encourages individuals to look at the brighter sides of life. Face even the worst situations with a smile. Trust me, flashing your trillion dollar smile will not only melt half of your problems but also evaporate your stress and worries. There is no point cribbing over minor issues and problems.
Personality development helps you develop a positive attitude in life. An individual with a negative attitude finds a problem in every situation. Rather than cribbing and criticizing people around, analyze the whole situation and try to find an appropriate solution for the same. Remember, if there is a problem, there has to be a solution as well. Never lose your cool. It would make the situation worse.
It is essential for individuals to behave well with people around. Being polite with others will not only make you popular among other people but also earn you respect and pride. You can’t demand respect by being rude with people around. Personality development plays an important role in developing not only your outer but also inner self. Human being is a social animal. One needs people around. An individual needs to have that magnetic power which attracts people towards him. You need to have that charisma of yours. Personality development helps you gain recognition and acceptance from the society as well as people around.
Personality development plays an essential role not only in an individual’s professional but also personal lives. It makes an individual disciplined, punctual and an asset for his/her organization. An in-disciplined individual finds it difficult to survive in the long run. Personality development teaches you to respect not only your Boss and fellow workers but also family members, friends, neighbours, relatives and so on. Never make fun of anyone at the workplace. Avoid criticizing and making fun of your fellow workers.
One should never carry his/her attitude or personal grudges to work. Office is not a place where you can be rude to others just because you had a fight with your friend last night. Personality development sessions help you differentiate between your personal as well as professional life. It is really essential to keep a balance between both the lives to lead a peaceful and stress free life.

13 Personality development tips
Know you are incomparable
The first step towards developing a great personality is feeling confident in your own skin. One of the most important ways to do that is to not compare yourself with others.
The constant comparing blocks our own strengths from view. The other person assumes more strength in our head. But the fortunate and often unrealized truth is that you are unique and incomparable. Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar says that the uniqueness of every person must be celebrated.

“There came a time when you were required on this planet and hence you were sent. Let us be the best we can be. Don’t miss yourself and let the world not miss you. In the history of the universe, there has been nobody like you and to the infinite of time to come, there will be no one like you.
Existence should have loved you so much that it broke the mould after making you, so that another of your kind will never get repeated. You are original.
You are rare. You are unique. You are a wonder. You are a masterpiece. Celebrate your uniqueness.” – Gurdev sri
The qualities you want are in seed form
We don’t really get the qualities we like in our peers with the feelings of jealousy or insecurity. That only makes us mentally weak. A healthier attitude is to applaud the qualities you like in your peers and recognize that these qualities are within you too, albeit in a seed form. With attention and practice, you can cultivate the same qualities and abilities in you. That is a growth mindset, the kind designed for success.
Be kind to yourself
Studies show that self-compassion brings positive traits like optimism, extroversion, wisdom, happiness, positivity and resilience. According to Emma Seppala, research psychologist at Stanford University, self-compassion involves three steps:
- Recognize that you deserve care and concern like anyone else and that is why you must be kind and understanding with yourself.
- Recognize that making mistakes and failing is part of life. So, do not be hard on yourself when you commit a mistake or fail and indulge in self-critical thoughts.
- Be aware of one’s emotions and feelings. Contrary to popular belief, self-compassion does not mean letting yourself off the hook. Rather, it means taking corrective action, albeit without being too self-critical.
Give space to imperfection
Imperfections agitate us. So much so that getting agitated easily becomes a habit, and being grumpy assumes a personality trait as we grow older. But we all know that people who are more relaxed or as they say, ‘chilled out’, live more happily and easily charm people with their relaxed vibes. To feel cooler in your skin and vibes, it is important to be able to give room to imperfections. Not everything – the people around you, situations you find yourself in, and your own personality have to be the way you want them to be all the time.
Think like a leader
A leader is not just someone by position. They are people who take responsibilities without waiting for someone else to give to them. Just thinking like one nurtures leadership traits in you. It can help you bring change and influence others. Read leadership tutorials from someone who has been voted as one of the top 100 inspirational women in India here.
Be light in mind and heart
When you are light in the mind and heart, it reflects in your behavior with others. People also feel light in your company. One of the ways to be able to feel that way is to not overthink and overanalyze. Don’t let any negativity like shame, anger, jealousy or greed stay in you for too long. Learn to take it easy, forgive easily and drop grudges against people as soon as they pop up. You also feel happy from within, and who does not like happy people?
Stay enthusiastic
There are two ways by which enthusiasm helps you: it makes your everyday tasks more joyful, and it pulls people towards you. And everyone likes enthusiasm. Meditation helps one feel enthusiastic, calm and composed at the same time.
Be a better communicator
A couplet in Kannada says that words can create laughter and can also create enmity. A skillful communicator can win over people and adverse situations. So, bring clarity in your communication. Learn how you can be an excellent communicator with these tips to improve communication from Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.
Be warm and approachable
We all like people with whom we can easily mingle with and talk to. No one likes a person who responds with a straight face. So be warm. Flash that smile more often. Be friendly and be ready to share and help.
Learn to let go
After you’re done with a task, let go of your attachment with the result. When you let go, you become free, calm and relaxed – attributes of a strong personality.
Be a lion in the face of danger
Don’t give into pressure and face every challenge confidently. Either you will overcome the adversity or learn something invaluable
Stay calm with the power of breath
Being calm strengthens one’s personality. However, staying calm can be difficult when you have a terrible headache and have an urgent deadline to meet. In such situations, tap the power of breath. Awareness of your breath can help you find calm amidst any situation.
Remember you’re a proton
A proton can never lose its positivity. Nor can you. Stress may affect us on the outside. However, your inner core continues to radiate positivity like a proton. It stays unaffected, happy and peaceful. Tune into this part of yourself again and again with the help of meditation. The process energizes and brings out positive traits like enthusiasm.
