7 Signs You Have A Strong Personality That May Scare Others by DreamChaser2000: 1:06pm On Nov 13, 2017 |
Those with a strong personality are not DOMINATING or RUDE - you’re not being difficult or “crossing the line.” None of that reflects who you are, or what your personality is, at all. In fact, most strong people are giant balls of fluff- they’re really just kind-hearted softies. But things get twisted because people with domineering personalities (those who refuse to back down when they are wrong, and won’t admit mistakes) give those with strong personalities (those who hold the other types accountable for their actions, words, and mistakes) a bad reputation. It’s not that you have to win, you’re just not willing to let others walk all over you whenever they please. 1 Like 1 Share |

1. You don’t tolerate excuses Also called ‘accountability.’ You do not put up with excuses. If you have a strong personality, you aren’t going to listen to people whine and complain about what they can’t do, what has gone wrong, and why they can’t succeed. You’d rather spend your energy focusing on what you can do, what can be resolved, and what can be accomplished. Sure, there might be plenty of reasons why you can’t do something…but there are more reasons why you can. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

2. You can’t stand small talk Small talk is unbearable. You have a lot of ideas, so of course you don’t want to waste time talking about what people are wearing or who is dating whom, when you could be talking about things that matter and, oh I don’t know, maybe change the world. 6 Likes 3 Shares |

3. You walk away from insensitivity, idiocy, and willful ignorance Domineering personalities stem from a lack of knowledge, and understanding. Strong personalities are developed by being thoughtful and well-informed. There is a massive difference between these two. See, you have spent plenty of time and effort using your brain power for good. So you don’t tolerate people who make instant judgments about things they don’t know anything about. This very well might be your best quality- not because you could use your intellect to influence others, but you can use your knowledge to encourage them to think about what they say before they poison the air. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

4. You listen to others Sure, it sounds like a great thing that most people would appreciate. However, listening to people and giving them your honest advice can be terrifying to someone who is used to living their life in a box of conformity and shame. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

5. You can live without the spotlight If you’ve got a strong personality, then you do not need attention. So why do people who meet you think you are an attention hog? It’s because you have something besides a strong personality; you have a magnetic personality as well. People are just drawn to your openness and honesty. You don’t socialize because you have a dire need to- you do it because people need and want you around. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

6. You are fearless Actually, you are probably afraid of at least one thing. But there is a difference between your fears and the fears of others; your fears do not dictate how you will live your life. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

7. You see insecurity as opportunity We all have moments of insecurity. It’s what you do with those feelings that matter. For you, insecurity is an opportunity to improve. You know you’re far from perfect but you keep going. You continue to learn and evolve, despite the risk of looking like a fool. This is the definition of living…not merely existing. It’s true, some people just aren’t going to like you. They think that you are difficult to be around. But what some perceive as difficult, others might see as challenging. You challenge other people to be the best version of themselves, and that’s not always a comfortable experience. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

Wow.. That's me!! I always suspected I had this in me ------------------------------------------- I'm so number one, one of my girlfriends thinks I am actually a proud person who does not believe in other peoples weaknesses. Although I have tried to explain that there are no reasons good enough for being inadequate but she looks me like some very weird egoistic person. |

Kondomatic: Seriously I have enough practical experience to testify about it. Believe me they are not exactly positive ones. I am often misunderstood. Called proud, which from the hearts of my heart I am not and nit trying to be.. Very low self-esteemed people( which from my observation accounts for over 90% percent of the world population) doesn't make it any easy for people like us. Being someone with super-personality is more pain than gain and I think you should empathize with us not because we are. Blowing our trumpets, but because we are a minority being marginalized. 2 Likes |

makydebbie: I'm seeing the word "Ambivert" for the first time in my life... No wonder it's said "we learn everyday" Sure many people ascribe all negative interpretations to introverted people. I have being called 'Proud' 'wicked' 'snub' 'pretender' you name it.. But some people's comment here in nairaland usually give me hope like one said in a thread I can't remember now.... "people usually fear what they don't understand" But lets be honest, I have an idea how introverted minds work, .... Introverts are snubs .. |
