The wonder of people lies in the manners of thousands of people, thousands of people, hundreds of people are different. Everyone has their own unique appearance and their own distinct personality. Therefore, the most curious thing for a person to know is what other people think of him.
People can usually guess more accurately about the general impression of others about themselves, whether they are good, bad, enthusiastic or indifferent. But some people don't need to guess that their usual behavior has clearly told others about their overall impression. Our daily speech and behavior are themselves a reflection of our own personality. This is determined by one's origin, family, hobbies, and the environment and degree of education. According to the saying that "three-year-olds look big, seven-year-olds look old", our personality characteristics and behaviors have long been basically fixed, and it is unlikely that there will be major changes.
Although our speech and behavior are an outward expression, they actually reflect our inner psychology and emotions. Therefore, sometimes when others want to understand our inner world and true personality, they will observe and understand through our speech and demeanor and external performance. And between friends and acquaintances, because everyone knows and understands each other, your overall impression has long been entered into the other person's brain. It's just that you can sometimes feel a little unfamiliar with your personality.
Do you ever think of a mysterious person walking around the street and then calling friends out into a house for tea, chatting, laughing, complaining, arguing, all your friends know him and have a definite conclusion about his personality. Have you ever thought about it, this person is yourself.
Suppose you walked into a living room and you were drinking tea, would you consider yourself a person with a unique personality? I don't think so. When you're disturbed by a guest making a noise in the living room, you say to yourself, "Who is this guy?" and it looks weird, I hope he doesn't get upset. "If that person is making a noise, do you feel like that's your personality?
When you stand in front of the mirror and look at yourself in the clothes you wear every day, you will almost be amazed even if you realize that this is you. When you straighten your hair in front of a mirror, do you feel like an absolute stranger? Do you develop a curiosity about this stranger? If this person has precise external details of shape, color, and movement, does his mental world and psychological characteristics have a vague compound effect with it?
Everyone tries to make a good impression of themselves with honesty, but what will the result be? If a person's impression can depend on the results of one interview or several interviews, then one person may force another person to accept an impression he wants to convey. But if the receiver of the impression has time at his disposal, the giver of the impression may wish to sit down and put his hand in his pocket, for nothing he can do will in any way alter or affect the impression he ultimately gives.
In fact, a person's true performance is unconscious, and the impression he gives to others is also involuntary and unconscious. How a person behaves often depends on both the actor and the other person. If the other party is a friend and acquaintance who is usually familiar, his behavior may be more casual, because everyone wants to be free and go their own way, and these fixed impressions are also very familiar and knowable to the other party. If the other person is someone he is not familiar with and can have an important impact on his real life. He may make a completely different appearance from his usual personality, and behave in a well-behaved and respectful manner in order to win the favor of the other party. So to understand a person's true personality, it is still necessary to observe and understand from his usual behavior. The personality traits he usually reflects are real and credible, and he will not deceive anyone.
