Does personality describe the person? To what extent do you agree?

#personality #person
It is argued that we should understand a
person
 by looking at their personalities. I agree that personality could partly present who that
person
 is, but other factors in
life
 should be considered as well. We use
personality
Suggestion
personally
 to talk about a
person
 from different angles. Sometimes we see a
person
 positively and we say that they are hard working, friendly or active. It can
also
 be some more complex description like
empathetic
Suggestion
empathy
, or sympathetic. People can
also
 be described in a negative way,
for example
, we always say some people are selfish as they only think about themselves. Other people may be seeing the world from a negative perspective all the time, we
thus
 call them a pessimistic
person
.
On the other hand
, to know a
person
 fully cannot only rely on the single
side we

side, we
 see from their personality, there are several other aspects that should be considered as well.
Firstly
, the
life
 experience is very important when we talk about one
person
.
For example
, a
person
 who worked as a doctor may have
better understand
Suggestion
a better understanding
better understanding
 about
life
 and death.
Secondly
, qualifications can be added to our understanding of a
person
, as that represents what academic knowledge and skills are they obtained.
Finally
, we
also
 care
about whether

about, whether
 that
person
 is polite and like sharing or not. The family backgrounds and cultural backgrounds can help us to know a
person
 better too. In conclusion, we may meet all kinds of people with different personalities.
However
, that does not represent who that
person
 is, we need to know the
person
 more by considering the other factors,
such
 as
life
 experience, qualifications, politeness or their various backgrounds.
