INTRODUCTION

Personality type refers to the psychological classification of different types

of individuals. Personality types are sometimes distinguished from personality
traits, with the latter embodying a smaller grouping of behavioral tendencies.
Types are sometimes said to involve qualitative differences between people,
whereas traits might be construed as quantitative differences.[1] According to
type theories, for example, introverts and extraverts are two fundamentally
different categories of people. According to trait theories, introversion and
extraversion are part of a continuous dimension, with many people in the
middle.

types of selected grade 10 students of MADMNHS, the study was conducted

RECOMMENDATION

Here are 10 great ways to improve your personality:

1. Be a better listener. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was considered one of the
most charming women in the world because she cultivated the skill of being
an exceptional listener. She was known for the way she would look a person
in the eyes, hang on their every word, and make them feel important. There
is nothing more appealing than having someone listen to you intently
making you feel like you're the only person in the world.

2. Read more and expand your interests.The more you read and cultivate new
interests, the more interesting you are to others. When you meet new
people it gives you the opportunity to share what you know and to
exchange your views with them.
3. Be a good conversationalist. This relates to how much you read and
know. Once you have much to contribute, learn how to talk about it with
others. No one can read about or know everything, so it's refreshing to
learn from others those things we don't have the time to about read
ourselves. If you happen to be shy, join a group like Toastmasters that
encourages you to talk about what you know.

4. Have an Opinion.There is nothing more tiresome than trying to talk to

someone who has no opinion on anything. A conversation has nowhere to
go if you have nothing to expound on. If, however, you have an uncommon
point of view or differing opinion, you are more interesting and stimulating
to be with socially (unless you're a know-it-all, of course). A unique outlook
expands everyone's perspective.

5. Meet New People. Make the effort to meet new people especially those
unlike you. It not only exposes you to different cultures and alternative
ways of doing things, it broadens your horizons.

6. Be yourself. The next most tiresome thing after having no opinions is trying
to be something you're not. Molding yourself in order to fit in, or be
accepted, usually backfires. Since each of us is unique, expressing that
uniqueness is what makes us interesting. Attempting to be a carbon copy of
someone else not only falls flat, but reveals a lack of authenticity.

7. Have a positive outlook and attitude. Who wants to be around people who
are negative, complain a lot, or have nothing good to say? In fact, most of
us run when we see them coming. Instead, be the kind of upbeat person
who lights up a room with your energy when you enter it. Do it by looking
for the best in people and things. Smile warmly, spread good cheer, and
enliven others with your presence.

8. Be fun and see the humorous side of life. Everyone enjoys thecompany of
someone who makes them laugh, or smile, so look for the humorous, quirky
side in a situation - there always is one. Comic relief is a much welcome and
needed diversion at times. When you can add fun and lightheartedness to
an otherwise dull or gloomy setting, others will naturally be attracted to
you, not to mention grateful.
9. Be supportive of others. Being supportive is probably the most endearing
quality you can integrate into your personality. Just as you yourself welcome it,
be the support for others when they need it. We all love a cheerleader in our
corner; someone who is encouraging, believes in us and helps pick us up when
we're down.

10. Have Integrity and treat people with respect. Being honest and true to your
word will bring you the admiration, respect and gratitude of others. Nothing
improves a person's personality more than integrity and respect - respect for
others, as well as respect for yourself.
