Ways of successful living


Keys to Successful Living

        Part 4

What is personality? The word “personality” comes from the root persona, which means “mask”. Our personality is a mask that we wear. We don’t have to wear a mask when we are by ourselves; we wear a mask to express ourselves to others. Our personality is character, and that character is composed of certain habits. Each of us has numerous habits; so when we want to understand our personality we should understand our habit patterns. A habit pattern is a conscious thought or action that one repeats again and again. This creates a groove in the unconscious mind and forms an unconscious habit. Unconscious habits are stronger than conscious habits. All habit patterns are self- created. When you sit down and we try to understand which our habits control our life, we see that there are many deep- rooted habits within us.
