Hi XXXX!!!!
The meaning of personality is a combination of who one really is, one innerself, one inner thoughts, one beliefes, responsabilities, one up-bringing, one culture, family, friends and friends!!! Which in return determine the way one acts!!! And the influence of the emviroment, where the person actually is!!!
To define a personality is as hard as to observe a snowflake forming itself!!! Is as simple as it is complex!!! Each of us have our own personality, but may change, due to where we are, whom we are with, why we should act the way we choose to.
That explains, when someone does something outragious,
when that same someone otherwise, wouldn't.
Others aspects of personality could be determine by, chemical inbalance in the brain function, the use of drugs, alcohol, or prescription medications, encarceration , fear, or hapiness!!!
This may alter a person's mind causing that someone to change personalities. A perfect example; as in pshychiatric cases.
We are constantly changing personalities, as we don't behave, act or carry ourselves, in the same fashion everywhere, with everybody!!!
So the actual meaning of personality, is the ability, we all have to change or adapt, the way we act as we needed, in different emviroments, and with different people!!!
GOD BLESS YOU , GOOD LUCK & HAPPY LIFE
