Human life is like a building construction. We exhibit different personalities and characters. But we need to differentiate the two if we are to integrate the two. Sound confusing! Well let me explain. Character is like the foundation to the construction of a building called life. If there is no foundation you cant guarantee if the building will last long the higher it rises.
Personality can be compared to the building itself which is being constructed and is visible to all. One can decorate the building’s exterior and interior with gold plating however what good is a gold plated building if it wont stand when a small tremor hits the area. Of course the investment will be worth if proper care has been made in the laying of the foundation.
One never knows when one is duped. You might consider buying a flat in a gold plated building because of what you see but what you don’t see can leave you in heavy loss. Human beings tend to take actions based on what they see and that’s where many tend to make mistakes. We have sight but tend to lack insight. A charming personality can easily market themselves so is a gold plated building. There are many training institutes in the country itself whose job is to sell gold plated building and give cosmetic made up professionals whose only focused is to charm their ways through the interviews.
Personality makes the first impression while character makes a lasting impression. Personality comes as and when required but character is displayed in all seasons whether good or bad. Personality is what one wants to project to others; character is what you are and what you choose to have. We need both but projected image must match with what you are inside. A gold plated flat marketed should equally have a strong foundation and a pleasant personality sold should match with the character you are inside.
