SUMMARY - Reading People: How Seeing The World Through The Lens Of Personality Changes Everything By Anne Bogel

Book excerpt: * Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes. As you read this summary, you will discover how to better understand your personality and that of others using different psychological tools. You will also discover : that the majority of conflicts are due to a difference in personality and point of view; that the Myers-Briggs typology allows you to find your personality type according to your preferred cognitive functions; that the CliftonStrengths test helps you discover your five strengths to exploit; that the Enneagram test helps you become aware of your defects and negative thoughts. In recent years, personality tests have been omnipresent in magazines, the Internet and social networks. However, they are often reductive and have nothing to do with psychology. At best, they bring you useless information (you are such and such a character in such and such a series) at worst, they lock you into a reduced and erroneous vision of yourself. To really discover who you really are, there are a multitude of tools developed by psychologists. These help you better understand your behaviour and that of others, without making value judgements. Are you ready to discover the truth about yourself? *Buy now the summary of this book for the modest price of a cup of coffee!
