HOW TO DEVELOP PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT
Personality psychology is considered the study of individual differences in behavior—how individuals behave differently from one another in various situations. Developmental personality psychologists are interested in understanding the ways individuals develop their unique patterns of responding to the environment based on genetic endowments and social histories. Also of interest is identifying the ways in which personality changes or is stable across development, as well as identifying early behavioural precursors that are predictive of later individual differences. From these multiple interests have come a number of perspectives on personality development relevant to the age period spanning infancy through adolescence (birth to twenty years of age).
Related to adolescent friendships and personality development is an aspect of personality known as self-concept. Some personality theorists and researchers contend that the developing and changing view a person holds of herself is an important aspect of individual differences and is often neglected under the temperament or trait conceptions of personality. From this perspective, a person's self-concept (which incorporates such features as the individuals history, sense of competency, and goals for the future) is an important behavioural determinant that is more dynamic, malleable, and encompassing than temperament or personality traits
A critical component in the development of one's self-concept is referencing, including temporal referencing, a self-comparison from an earlier time to a later time, and social referencing, a comparison of one's self to others. Temporal and social referencing yield the type of self-examination that serves to increase the stability of individual differences through an individual making behavioural and/or environmental changes to maintain a self-concept. The particular style of referencing most commonly adopted changes across the lifespan. Temporal referencing is most common in childhood and in old age when relatively rapid physical and cognitive changes are most apparent. Conversely, social referencing is most common in adolescence and adulthood when individual change is less appreciable.
Here are 6 great tips you can use:
1. Awareness of your own interaction with other people is the first step in improving your communication skills.
Learn to identify which types of situations make you uncomfortable and then modify your behaviour to achieve positive results is a critical step in improving your communication skills.
You can learn to become aware of behaviours in other people that prompt you to respond in negative ways and modify your own behaviour to turn the situation into a positive experience.
2. You must accept responsibility for your own behaviour and do not fear apologising for errors in judgement or insensitive actions.
Asking others for honest feedback about the way you interact with others can be very helpful. Accept the negative feedback along with the positive and make changes accordingly

3. Your non-verbal communication is equally as important as the things that you say. Positive body language is extremely important in your interactions with other people.
If your words and your actions do not match, you will have a difficult time succeeding in social situations.
4. In order to learn how to improve your communication skills, you must become a great listener. You must fight the urge to respond immediately and really listen to what the other person is trying to communicate.
Offering suggestions or criticism before you are certain of the other person's intent can only lead to frustration for both parties.
5. Improving your communication skills is a process and cannot be accomplished overnight . Trying to improve or change too many things at once will be counter-productive.

Awareness of own interaction is necessary. It is true to improve the awareness. Awareness in all respect whether we are in office or home. We should be aware to related works.
I have learnt from your article that I am weak in speaking English but hesitate to accept it. I can imagine and write too but feel hesitation to speak with other people.
I can speak English with our son also but cannot speak English in fluent manner with unknown and unfamiliar person.
Second point is also good but I always give positive points and advice too for be positive always in every circumstances.
It is also true related to responsibility. We should be understand own responsibility and never shy or fear apologies for errors.
We should be accepted negative or positive feedback of our work.
I am also good listener. I never interrupt to other. I always listens everything with cool minded to consider in positive way.
At the end I can understand and always keep in
