The Many Masks of Personality

The Many Masks of Personality

The development of our character is a dynamic process that begins in childhood and continues throughout our lifespan, and a range of biological, psychological, and social factors influences it. As we can see in children, character and personality are not fixed and can be influenced by life experiences. Our upbringing and life experiences significantly shape our views on life, which can influence our beliefs and assumptions and ultimately shape our personalities. This process plays a significant role in shaping our character and personality and continues to change throughout our lifetime.

The Costs of Withholding Truth

When we prevent ourselves from communicating our true feelings, it can become difficult to see the situation objectively. Our blocked emotions cloud our judgment and create a sense of hopelessness that makes us doubt the chances of finding a solution. We view the other person in an unfavorable light, failing to recognize the human component that intrinsically exists in all relationships. It's an intimidating process, but speaking up after having withheld our truth can be difficult, as emotions can often be overwhelming. This feeling of damming up can make it difficult to express our thoughts and feelings clearly and rationally.
