11 Daily Habits That Give A Deep Insight Into Your Personality, According To Experts (3 of 3)

Your controlling behavior can be deduced by looking at the way your mailbox is organized

Irrespective of whether you’re an inbox hero, or you’re someone who is least bothered by the fact that the unread messages have swelled up to more than 10,000 emails, the way you organize your mailbox says a lot about the way you control things in life.

People who cannot stop themselves from filing and deleting emails the moment they have read it may be the ones who like to be in control of their lives all the time.

Similarly, those of us who save their emails in the hope that we’ll eventually come back to them later and address them, are perfectionists.

And finally, there’s this third kind of people who simply leave their emails unread, as they feel overwhelmed. Alternately, these people may also be the ones who are smart, as they realize that reading the emails wouldn’t help their cause.

Your smartphone addiction might be an indicator of your emotional stability

In this digital era, most of us cannot help but check out phones every couple of minutes, irrespective of where we are or what we’re doing.

However, if you are someone who is constantly glued to the screen, it may be an indicator of your emotional stability. According to recent research, people were asked to affirm or negate questions such as “I end up spending more time on my smartphone than I should”, or “I get frustrated when my smartphone is not in sight”.

Results revealed that people who were addicted to smartphones were emotionally unstable.

And quite interestingly, it also found that introverts were less likely to be addicted to their phones than extroverts were.

Even your selfie style has a lot to reveal about your personality traits!

We all make assumptions about people around us based on how they take selfies.

However, we may or may not be accurate. However, in a study conducted in 2015, some Chinese students studied selfies posted on a Chinese social media site. Most of their assumptions such as pressed lips signified the person was extrovert, while single selfies meant that the person was neurotic all turned out to be completely wrong.

The single accurate observation the students were able to make was that a positive demeanor in a selfie showed that the person was open to trying out new experiences.

The students also found out that the more friendly a person was, the more he or she was likely to take a selfie from below. On the other hand, conscientious people refrained from revealing any kind of private space in their backgrounds. On the other hand, people who loved trying out new experiences usually displayed positive emotions in their pictures, while neurotic people were the ones who preferred to make a duck face. So, the next time you’re taking a selfie with your friends or colleagues, you can easily guess their personality traits from the way they pose for the picture.
