We have talked about a lot of things lately: signs your ex wants you back, how quiet people actually have the loudest minds, signs you might have anger issues, rules that grandparents are allowed to break, basically all sort of things.
Let’s change the topic a little bit and let’s talk about signs that indicate you have a strong personality. Let’s make something clear first: having a strong personality doesn’t mean being a harsh, bossy, mean person.
Having a strong personality means that you are not afraid to speak your mind, you are not scared to make mistakes and to try something different. But let’s stop the chit-chat here and see those signs.
Being a human being means that you don’t have endless power to do everything you want to. It also means that you might not be able to do everything right the first time. You may need more time, more knowledge, more help from others, who knows?
The important part is that there is nothing wrong with making a mistake. It can happen to everyone and it can always – at least almost – be fixed. Recognizing and being opened about your mistakes means assuming your wrongs and always growing.
Adults shouldn’t be afraid to admit they were wrong. They should try and repair their mistakes and get over them.
In this one I’m not talking about chit-chatting with colleagues, friends or family. It is normal to catch up, to talk about what each other have been doing and so on.
The small talk refers to unnecessary gossip or comments about different topics, such as you boss’s new car. Yes, you will see it, but it’s not a subject that deserves a lot of your time and energy. You might be focused on bigger topics that serve you more good.
People who have strong values know what they like and what they don’t. They are determined, focused and are not afraid to say “no” when they find something they don’t agree with.
Over the years and thanks to the experience they have accumulated, they have developed a strong set of values. If they find something or someone who doesn’t fit there, they won’t settle for less.
There is nothing wrong with helping people or with being there when they need someone. But that doesn’t mean people with strong personalities forget about themselves and start doing everything that everyone else want.
People with strong personalities are opened and they are willing to help others, but that doesn’t mean they will get out of their way just to please someone.
Having a strong set of beliefs and values, being determined and knowing exactly what you want might give the idea that you are arrogant, but only because you are focused on your goals.
This happens a lot when somebody values their own time rather then doing something for others. Also, when someone is speaking their mind and they are not beating around the bush with the words they use, they might seem harsh, but in reality, it is not the case. You can’t always have a smile on your face when you say something that might not be what everyone else is thinking.
People with strong personalities care more about themselves. This in not something selfish, it only means that they are embracing themselves and they want what’s best for them.
They are doing many things and they don’t seek people’s attention or validation, because they are confident in their own strength.
Excuses make you postpone your activity and make you avoid facing your responsibilities. We have all done it, but people that have strong personalities know that this is not the way to go.
It is true that sometimes it’s good to take a break and not do anything, but finding several excuses so you won’t have to deal with what you’re supposed to say it’s not good.
We all want to be perceived as strong, confident, bold people, but we also have a lot of emotions. Sometimes we are scared, angry, upset, tired, who knows what else?
Admitting your emotions and your feelings is not something bad, because it takes a lot of courage to open up about what you feel.
There are people who prefer to keep it quiet when there is an argument involved, even though they might be right. Having a strong personality means that you choose to speak up when you want and have to. It also means that you are not afraid to tell someone that they are wrong – as long as you give arguments.
There’s no room for negative energy, self-doubt and toxicity in your life. Not from you and not from somebody else! You attract what you are, so being positive and helpful will do just wonders!
Not all people are born with a strong personality. Many times, a personality and an attitude like this begin when the person has a lot of experience and a lot of confidence.
These can be learned day by day, little by little, without too much stress.
Until next time, act confident and no one will question you!
