Such situations have contributed to my personality, which is classified as “pleasant” and contains characteristics such as empathy and caring. At the age of six I lost my father to brain cancer. From then on I was raised by my mother and grandparents. At a young age, I experienced the loss of a loved one and at that time I didn't fully understand everything that accompanies it. However, over the years, I have come to recognize and appreciate the love and support that my mother and grandparents continually provided me in an effort to make my life as “normal” as possible without a father figure. I feel that this example of love has played a significant role in developing specific traits in my personality, including kindness, love, and empathy. Because I have been shown these traits and received a wonderful outcome from them, I now want to show these same qualities to others during their time of need, in an effort to convey the same love and kindness that was extended to me at an early age. One principle that was instilled in me from the beginning of my life was the golden rule, which states to always treat others the way you want to be treated, as you never know what someone might be going through. I always try to put myself in “someone else's shoes” so that I can treat them with kindness, love and respect. This leads to another experience I had in a sales job. I feel like my personality traits make it very difficult for me to do a sales job. I'm so private and don't want to feel like I'm taking advantage of anyone. I will do whatever it takes to make sure whoever I deal with is happy and has an amazing experience. While such traits can normally lead to success, this personality type is probably not the best if your desire is to become an expert salesperson. Author Christian Jarrett wrote in The British
