personal traits of character
meeting people for the first time we always make a judgment based on their appearances though the proverb tells us not to make this mistake. still we look at the face, try to guess age or profession, listen to the way a person speaks. the same way other people might estimate us. let’s try to look at ourselves as if we are strangers and this criticism might help us improve our character.
certainly, the very first look is at your face and build or figure.
if your face has a rosy complexion and your bright eyes shine at the world you are a person who spends a lot of time outdoors, doesn’t sit in front of tells and combines work and fun reasonably. the well-combed hair and neatly cut nails will tell everyone that you are a tidy person who respects yourself and the people around you. a stooping back and badly cleaned teeth wouldn’t be considered positive and would betray your dislike of physical exercise and laziness. now, what can you say about your appearance?
the world of emotions makes its imprints on appearance, too. what emotions are the most frequent in your life? joy, sorrow, anger, excitement, shame, pride, enthusiasm, loneliness, misery, love.
if you are a determined and strong-willed person you would never give up and behave coolly and calmly whatever happens in your life. only weaklings would scream or fly into a rage. good-humored people take things as they are and think of ways out of difficulties.
much is connected with your attitude to people. if you are communicative, sociable people would appreciate you and you would have lots of friends. on the contrary, hostile tactless, false and deceitful persons are repulsive and are doomed to stay alone.
certainly, there is no ideal person in reality but if we tried to portray such a person they would possess the following qualities: he/she must be kind-hearted and friendly, but modest at the same time. generosity and sincerity are the traits that would attract everybody. a good friend is definitely a person who is interesting to speak to – he must be witty and intelligent. vain and impudent people are very difficult to deal with, they consider themselves the hub of the universe and never try to look at themselves critically. today’s idea of courage has changed and it’s not necessary to fight with wild animals or travel to unknown lands. but diligence and industry are the qualities that are always valued.
there are no ideal people. we should take the world as it is but try to improve it starting with ourselves. what positive qualities do you consider absolutely necessary for everyone? which negative traits can’t you agree with? why?
describe one of your friends and speak about his/her positive and negative traits of character. speak about yourself. which traits would you try to develop in yourself? which ones have to be rooted out?
