How Personality Development and Spoken English Are Connected
As we all know, success is not just about what you know, but how you say it, especially in the fast-paced and competitive world we live in today. Success is never enough, though. Unfortunately, many students stop learning once they graduate. This is particularly the case with personality development, and often spoken English is a crucial factor in shaping personality development.
Personality development focuses on behaviors, attitudes, confidence, and aptitudes, while spoken English gives you the power to vocally present personality development to the world (e.g., job interviews, group discussions, casual conversations, etc.). Your ability to speak in English fluently and confidently affects how other people perceive you.
Spoken English is more than simply grammar and vocabulary. It is a way for you to express your thoughts clearly, engage with people from across the world and cultures. And confidently step out into your social or professional environment. In this blog we will explore how mastering spoken English can enhance your personality and personality attributes and help you shine in all areas of your life.
1. Spoken English Boosts Confidence
You’ve got to have confidence to have a strong personality, and being able to speak fluently in English contributes to that confidence. Picture yourself entering a room full of people from all backgrounds—when you are able to relay what you want to express in English. Clearly, you feel more in control of yourself, more present within the moment, and so much less anxious.
There are many people who simply struggle to say what they want to say in English, but they definitely know what they want to say. After all, when you freeze because of hesitation, the self-doubt creeps in pretty quickly. Luckily for you, after you commit to daily practice and having conversations in English. If you become more confident in your spoken English, then the background noise of hesitation begins to disappear. Then, you start to hold your head up a little higher, make eye contact, and speak with clarity—and that’s when you can start developing your true confidence.
Whether speaking in front of a class, delivering a presentation, speaking in front of colleagues in a meeting, or even having a casual conversation with a stranger. Being fluent in English will ensure that you will be heard and respected when contributing to the conversation. The more confident you become in your speech, the more assertive and well-rounded a personality you will develop.
2. Better Communication = Stronger Personality

7. Overcoming Shyness: From Introvert to Extrovert
Overcoming shyness and going from being an introvert to an extrovert will be quite the adventure. Shyness can often be connected to a fear of being judged or rejected. But you will be happy to know that the key to overcoming this is to simply step out of your comfort zone. You can start small with setting attainable goals like starting a conversation with a person you don’t know or being active in discussions in a group. Achieving goals like this will allow you to get comfortable with not only being social but also with the insecurity of being social as well.
The next step in overcoming shyness is to develop your communication skills. There are a lot of ways that you can improve in this area, but to summarize, make sure you are actively engaging in conversations. Listen carefully and ask questions based on the conversation. Also, maintain eye contact. The more effective your conversations are with others, the less nervous you will be when socializing with others in the future. Another way to convert efforts to improvement is by practicing positive body language as it relates to communication. An example of this would be to practice standing tall or smiling more. Again, you are altering how you perceive yourself, and in doing so, you will affect how others see you.
Public speaking is another great way to push the limits that you have created. Public speaking could be anything from making a short speech to joining a public speaking group or presentation. It doesn’t matter what your skill level is. Anything you do that requires you to use your voice, make sound, and speak in front of others will help you overcome communication fears.
