You may be someone who looks like you want to be in the spotlight. However, the reality is people surround you because of your personality. They love how honest and open you are. They just love being in your presence.

Many people seek the approval of the people around them. You are not one of those people. You are happy to walk your own path, doing that which you love. Your motivation comes from the things you want to do, not what other people think.

Some people are not the kind you want to befriend. You take care with the people you trust to be friends. You have fewer friends as a result, but those friends are the ones who will be at your side with things get tough.

The last thing you want to do is mindless chitchat about the latest celebrity gossip. It is not a useful use of your time and energy. You would rather have discussion on topics with far more meaning.

If you commit to doing something, you do it. You expect others to do the same. So, when someone makes a commitment, then starts making random excuses as to why it can't be done, you have no patience with it. People need to focus on getting done what can be done instead of focusing on things that cannot be.

Some would call you fearless. The truth is you simply take on each obstacle that comes your way and overcome them. You aren't the bravest person, but you are one who will tackle what is ahead. How you handle life's ups and downs is a measure of your resolve and strength.

Some people go around whining about others never listening to them. However, whenever they meet a true listener like you, they get insecure. It terrifies them that you are actually paying such close attention. The good news is that there are plenty of people who truly admire this skill in you.

You take care with what you say and do, being sensitive to those around you. When you meet someone who is not so sensitive, you avoid them. You don't want to be around people who say or do ignorant or insensitive things.

So, is your personality strong or are you intimidated by these strong personality traits? Let us know. Also, give your friends and family a chance to see for themselves.
