The complex of all the attributes--behavioural, temperamental, emotional and mental--that characterize a unique individual; "their different reactions reflected their very different personalities"; "it is his nature to help others".
How to build good personality ?..
One basic truth about life is that things take time. If you want to improve your personality, first you have to recognize the fact that it will take you quite a long time to attain your aim. It is likely to take a few years of dedicated effort on your part because you will have to form new habits of thinking, feeling, speaking and acting which require a prolonged period of time to make them automatic or second - nature to you.
Some more tips
Be open to new experiences, new people, & new things. Be open-minded. Believe in yourself, be confident.
Listen when other people are talking to you. Get into conversations, ask questions about them, show them that you have a genuine interest in what they're saying.
Everybody loves to have a good audience when they talk about themselves, so if you show them you're listening they'll love you for it!
Care for others.
Be constructive.
Don't criticize or judge people. Don't be "cold" or stand-offish; be inviting, open.
