Personality The term personality is usually used to describe distinctive, or habitual features, characteristics or properties concern the individual's way of copying with life. Perception, motivation and learning are processes. Personality is not a process, but we must distinguish between an individual's current personalities on the one hand, and how it arrived at that state on the other. The latter concerns personality development, which clearly is a process unfolding over time.
Personality is the total pattern of characteristic ways of thinking, feeling and behaving that constitute the individual's distinctive method of relating to the environment.
Personality is a broad, integrating concept, but all properties of the individual are not interesting. Most of the people have two legs, talk, dislike pain and get drunk at least once in their lives. These properties are not remarkable and do not set people apart from others. A one-legged, dumb, alcoholic masochist is however exceptional and therefore more interesting.
