Unlocking Personality: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding Yourself and Others Using the Big Five Personality Model

Why Did You Write this Book?

Everything I do is aimed at helping people understand and love who they are. To not be ashamed or hide behind some false character armour but instead embrace the gifts that God has given them. 

As part of that aim I've compiled this ebook.

Based on the Big Five Personality model - one of the most widely recognised and respected frameworks in modern psychology - Unlocking Personality provides a comprehensive overview of the five major personality traits aimed at individuals keen to understand themselves and others better. 

Using a blend of scientific research, psychological theories, and relatable anecdotes, I demonstrate how personality psychology is the key to unlocking ones potential and fostering successful relationships.

It's worth stating that all of us are different in some way, shape, or form. Far from being a bad thing, this is a wonderful thing. We have real power in diversity and in encouraging and celebrating that diversity.

Why?

Because there isn't a single answer to all the world's problems. We owe it ourselves and others to understand and maximise our strengths - to give those unique talents to the world.

This book will go a long way to helping you do exactly that.

What Will I Get Out of It?

By the end of this book you will:

1. Understand why personality psychology is key to maximising potential and enhancing relationships.
2. Gain a thorough understanding of the Big Five Personality model - what it is, how it came about, also how and why you should use it.
3. Understand the implicit strengths and weakness at the end of each major personality trait and how to leverage this information.
4. Understand how negative emotion relates to personality and what you can do to mitigate it.
5. Understand how personality influences our political persuasions and the dangers inherent at the extreme ends of the personality spectrums.
6. Understand the major gender differences in personality, why we have them and what this means.

What Have Other People Said?

"I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this series. Really insightful and lots to take away. If only everybody could read them and take action, the world would be a much happier place!" - cathyishappy

"Love this series, AP2. Especially the guidance – “what you want to do is push yourself outside of your personality comfort zone. That’s how you build character.” Great analogy about the hand we’re dealt and how to think about the game." - Wynne Leon

"This series is quite an accomplishment, AP. I have read it with interest and found it enlightening and thought-provoking." - Cheryl, Gulf Coast Poet

Is It Really Free?

Yes, this ebook is completely free. All you have to do is put $0 under "Name a fair price" and then hit "I want this!"

There is a suggested amount of $5 as this ebook took months of research/work to put together.

Of course, it would mean the world to me if you decided to pay a small amount but it's not necessary. I appreciate that everyones circumstances are different.

I would much rather put the book into your hands than make any money from it.
