The Triangular Person

Forget the well rounded personality which is just essential square with filed out corners.

People consist of three main properties: what they want to be, how society sees them and what they really are.
Since humanity is essentially dynamic these properties are in constant motion meaning that if you do not attempt to steer that journey towards the goals that you choose it will inevitably drift towards a direction that you do not like – most probably the least desirable one for you.
So if we have  triangle with What I am, How society sees me and What I want to be at each point and if we imagine a vector starting from that point and crossing the side joining the other two - we’ll have 1.  the course with  the most support between what what we want and how society sees us, 2. the one with the most chance of success is the one between what we want and what we really are and 3.  the least desirable one is the one between how the others see us and what we really are. The good news is the course we really want to take is the one between 2. the most chance of success and 1. the one with the most support.
