Episode#5: Understanding Your Behavioral Element

Since the beginning of recorded time, some of the world’s greatest thinkers have been trying to figure out the keys to unlocking human nature. Philosophers & scientists of every culture have struggled to create a system to explain how we process information, relate to one another, handle conflict, make decisions, deal with change, and communicate!

Some theories have risen to the top while others have been surrendered to the scrapheap of time and fallen out of favor. What is interesting, though is that most theories share two distinct things in common:

Our psyche consists of sub-personalities, temperaments, sub-egos, etc.

That there are four such sub-personalities, temperaments, & sub-egos. 80% of us are blends of two or more, 27% have dominance in one and 3% of us are a rare, near-perfect fusion of all four.

Your personality is your trademark. It is the thing by which people recognize you. You have to ask yourself a question, “Does my mask or persona, cause people to be attracted to you or be repelled by you. Your highest and best cause is to become an expert on the answer to that question.

Why? Because It helps you to get in touch with who you are and also learn to communicate effectively with those around you.

“The Stanford Research Institute, Harvard University, and the Carnegie Foundation spent 1 million dollars and five years in research that proved: 85% of the reason you get a job, keep a job and move ahead in a job has to do with your ability to understand other people and effectively communicate with them!”

The Word “personality” originated from the Latin “persona”, meaning mask. In the theatre of the ancient Latin-speaking world, the mask was used not as a disguise but rather as a plot device to typify the character. I call that mask your Behavioral Element.
