Yes, you are born to perform. The genetic tendencies gives you an advantage. As researched by the eminent Swiss Psychiatrist, Carl Gustav Jung, People are born with attitudes and are predisposed to function well in certain domains of life and career. He published his book ‘Psychological Types’ in 1921 that has virtually become a doctrine in Analytical Psychology.
There is nothing called the Best Personality. One can PERFORM WELL AND succeed in life and career by making the best use of what one already has. Since hereditary influences are more or less permanent and lasts as long as we live, it is good to focus on the “Upbringing” and the “Environment.
So it is all about creating a conducive environment for each individual. Your responsibility is to identify the hereditary strengths of people you are dealing with and then communicate in that style. The person likes it since you are tapping into one’s strengths and not hitting out at one’s weaknesses. No two children are the same and so are your team members. You need to customise your communication strategy to each person based on the other person’s need and not based on your wants.
The key is to know the inner motivations of your children, team members, colleagues, bosses, customers, spouse or anyone with whom you interact. You cannot change your personality but surely you can change your communication. Your success lies in communicating in their style. The idea is to strengthen the strengths of the other person. This is faster route to successful performance, growth, and rewards. But when people wrongly focus on strengthening the weakness, the challenges are too many.

One can PERFORM WELL and SUCCEED in life and career by
making the best use of what one already has.
It is good to focus on the “Upbringing” and the “Environment”
of an individual.
11. For C h a n g i n g Attitudes R e a c h i n g Effectiveness Help Empower Life Potential
Parents bring up their children according to what they
think is right.
Your Upbringing Impacts Your Personality Too
When personality traits of the parent
and the child are similar, there is an
alignment between the child’s
personality and the parenting style.
Challenge comes when the personalities
of the parent and the child are at odds.

difficult individual to get along with.

with the weaker personality.

time with the dominant personality.

How Do You Perceive?
