'Cause you've got personality, Walk, with personality Talk, with personality Smile, with personality Charm, personality Love, personality And plus you've got A great big heart' You might be too young to remember this song from the 60's . In those days if someone said that a person had a great personality the assumption would be that they were referring to the part of the personality that was thought to make you popular such as outgoingness, friendliness, confidence or maybe a sense of humour. No one who was shy and withdrawn would have been thought to have a great personality. Personality was considered an outward trait. But we have evolved from that to a different time and more insight into the various personality types.
