We all have a mental image of ourselves, and we always believe that our behaviour and actions reflect that image. However, the reality is that our behaviour may reflect an image of a personality other than what we think of ourselves. For example, when you present a piece of candy to a child, you may think of yourself as a good person, but the reality is that you have acted poorly with regard to the child's health. It becomes more complicated when you notice that different people assess your behaviour from different perspectives and have different mental images of you. Your co-worker, whom you think is silly because of his boring jokes, is funny according to your manager’s perspective. Your third colleague thinks he (the silly one) is smart because he managed to win over the boss. When it comes to personality development, you need to check which personality your behaviour reflects and test how different categories of relevant people translate this reflection into different personalities according to their perspectives.
Here is how to see your personality in others’ mirrors:
1. Select the proper test.
2. Take the questionnaire to know how you think of yourself (your own mirror).
3. Sign in and invite friends to take the questionnaire on behalf of you (create mirrors).
4. Wait a while and log into your account to see how your friends think of you.
