For most of us, there is one part of our personality that stands out above the rest – what we call the top personality trait.

Like the proverbial tip of an iceberg, this is the part of you that stands out above the rest – the part of you that makes a big first impression. And while, yes, there is much more to you than meets the eye, it is this top personality trait that will likely be remembered by others meeting you for the first time.  

All of which is why you should ensure you know your top personality trait: because people form opinions about others very, very quickly.

How quickly?

Depending on which study you believe, as little as a tenth-of-a-second. Granted, these first impressions are based on little more than a person’s appearance, but that impression quickly expands to encompass personality as well. 

So, do you know what people really think of you on first impression? Learning your top trait could help.
