In this paper, I will reflect how I define personality. Then I will explain some key personality features that defines me. Some key concepts that explain my personality. Explain if my personality features are consistent or do they change according to the situation.

Personality is the particular combination of emotional, attitudinal, and behavioural response patterns of an individual. With these response patterns, it allows us to act in certain ways and respond to certain things in our lives.
