What Are the Myths You Hold About Your Personality?

Self-concept can shape the way people recall key events in their life. As this so-called narrative about yourself starts to take shape, the details may shift, but overall, it will have some type of theme or organizing framework.

Confronting personal myths may help people develop a more realistic view of themselves and their past.

What Your Life Story Says About You

What Your Life Story Says About You

The prominent themes in your identity can emerge from certain characteristics you hold based on your gender, race or ethnicity, age, place where you live, and social class.  

The meaning of these characteristics that you hold can be shaped by social norms or expectations. 

You may also have prominent themes based on the way you define your personality.

 The question is, are these themes based on accurate self-reflections, or are they myths?

Judging Personality from Life Stories

Judging Personality from Life Stories

You are always telling your story to others, but you also tell it to yourself. If your personality shapes that story, the question remains as to how closely the events you recall would actually conform to the objective qualities of the experiences themselves. 

Understanding that myths can shape the way you see yourself can help give you clarity in understanding your identity, a process that can continue to shape fulfillment as you continue to merge new events into that ongoing saga.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Giovanna Scalzone

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.
