Having the Right Personality!

There are a number of factors we require in order to be all, or achieve all we have been wired for. Another way of saying this is, there are areas of our lives we need to pay attention to in order to fulfil purpose or life goals. Personality, I believe is one important factor that can determine how far we achieve purpose. I would like to share a narrative that depicts having the right personality is key to achieving in life.  

The Oxford dictionary describes personality as 'the combination of characteristics or qualities that form an individual's distinctive character'

   

This Narrative is based on the life of Ruth. It’s a narration about how Ruth finds a job......

Naomi and Ruth arrived Bethlehem at a time when the scarcity that had been in the land had ceased and lots of businesses where beginning to pick up. Ruth informed Naomi that she would love to go into the city to look for a job. Naomi was very supportive of her decision and advised her on how best to approach the people of Bethlehem since she was not from around here. Ruth was content with her mother in-laws instructions and adhered to them.

Within the first day of Job hunting, Ruth was fortunate to get an intern role in a company where she was accepted and later given a more permanent  job; to gather the grains after the harvesters. And in no time, her diligent, enthusiastic personality singled her out. This pleasant persona of Ruth kept her in a good relationship with the staff and management of the field where she had attached herself. 

Think about your experiences in life and try to identify how your personality has impacted events and results you have had thus far? Building the right personality does count!
