Activity: The Big Five

Over the last ten years - I think I have become a stronger person mentally, emotionally and developed more self awareness, more emotionally moved by other people, more interested in others, less self absorbed, more aware of the downfalls of my personality and how it may effect my relationships with others, I have better control over my anxiety and depression, more calm and relaxed, a deeper level of compassion for what others might be going through, more accepting of diverse needs and become more humble and non-judgmental.

drastically. the person I am today would cringe at the me 10 years ago

2. How do your think your personality traits might have changed over the past ten years? 

Its changed alot.  I'm more comfortable and confident in my abilities and values.  Over the years, I've become more aware of my surroundings and I value and invest in relationships where I believe there is a two way street - where I can add value to someones life and vice versa.  

while I have no trouble talking to people and are happy to be social, I love my own company and are some time very introverted at home. I have always loved to make people happy but never really compromised my beliefs to do that. I am more conscientious now than I was in my twenties. 

In the last 10 years I have definitely become less extroverted and more emotionally stable

While I do not feel significant change of my core personality, I feel more centred and clam.   

Always been a extrovert but now know when to reign it in. I am more of an active listener than I was 10yrs ago.  And having the ability to be able to just let stupid things go instead of it playing on my mind. My focus is slowly shifting back to me.

I have learned a lot more about the nervous system and regulation/dysregulation, and through that have greater self awareness, so have greater emotional stability.  I'm surprised by the extrovert score here as I am definitely more introverted than in the past too, however I still love to connect with people, but do in a quieter more authentic way these days.

I think that, as I have become more self-aware and self-accepting, my emotional stability has improved but I'm still working on the agreeableness. Although there are some lovely traits with this factor, I still struggle a little with letting it over ride and I don't voice or take action for my own needs before others.

I think my traits have changed -

 I am more extroverted- I used to be very shy around new people, now I love making new connections!

I do believe I am a lot more emotionally stable. I still have triggers that affect me, but I am a lot more resillient.

Over the last 10 years, I'd say that my extroversion has gone way down and my emotional stability has improved.  

I don't think my personality traits have majorly changed but I've gained a lot of awareness around my traits, patterns and blindspots and been consciously leaning into growing what I "under do". 

Over the past ten years, I think my personality has grown as I’ve become more aware of who I am and my strengths and qualities. I also believe I have become a more empathetic person, better able to understand and relate to others.

With age comes more confidence. I feel I'm a lot more talkative now than when I was younger. Having children changes you. 

1 - 70%
2 - 48%
3 - 95%
4 - 84%
5 - 11%

I think this is fairly accurate. I have definitely changed over the last few years. Settling down with 3 kids.

I use to be quite highly strung, but am way more chilled these days.  I think this overall score and the descriptions relating to each are a true reflection of my personality.  

1 - 95%

2- 30%

3 - 93%

4 - 80%

5 - 18%

I think  I have become less sociable and seeking out more alone time

I found my emotional stability score quite confronting, I feel my emotions more now than I did 10 years ago as far as I can remember, I dont recall being a "emotional adolescent" but now I feel my hormones and my cycle play a big part in my emotions as a 34 year old! I think my intellect score is interesting :), I did think as I was getting older I was also getting wiser, at least this test shows I am kind to others lol. 

I am definitely more considerate and less extroverted than in my younger years. I was very much an I don't care, let's have fun type of person and I always enjoyed being around introverts because we balanced each other. All of my best friends would call themselves introverts. I'm much more emotionally stable than I was I'd hate to think what the number would've been in my early twenties lmao

I think this is a pretty accurate reading, just need to keep working on my emotional stability, perimenopause...haha

I think I have been an extrovert since forever 

The biggest change for me has been the last 3-4 years. Leaving an abusive marriage, cutting of my narcissistic mother and lots of therapy have let me start to be aware and let go of some negative core beliefs. I'm finally starting to believe in my own self confidence.

Over the past ten years, I have become more organized, cooperative, and emotionally stable. I handle stress better and feel more confident, which has helped me build stronger relationships and reach my goals.
