Have you ever felt like there’s more to you than meets the eye? Like you’re somehow different from most people?
Well, maybe you are.
From a rich inner world to a strong creative side, we’re gonna look at 10 subtle signs that you have a deeper personality than you realize and help you get a better understanding of who you are.
Let’s jump right in:
1) You have a rich inner world
Do you often find yourself lost in your thoughts? Are you big on daydreaming?
Well, sounds to me like you have a pretty rich inner world and that could be a subtle sign that you have a deeper personality than you think.
The thing about people with deep personalities is that they can happily spend hours on end alone with their thoughts. In fact, a lot of philosophers and writers have deep personalities.
But it’s not just about thoughts and words, your inner world could be visually rich too. Think of all those amazing artists like Dali and Frida Kahlo! Their imagination had no limit and art was a way for them to express their inner psyche.
2) You’re highly empathetic
Another subtle sign you have a deep personality is your deep sense of empathy and compassion.
I think that the people who can just walk by someone in pain and not feel anything don’t have much going on under the surface, you know what I mean?
You on the other hand possibly have too much going on. I mean, it’s so easy for you to imagine yourself in someone else’s shoes and feel what they’re feeling.
Here’s the thing, empathy requires a certain level of emotional intelligence and an ability to connect with others on a deeper level. I’d say that those are traits of a pretty deep personality.
3) You’re curious and open-minded
You’re open-minded, naturally curious about the world around you, and enjoy learning new things. What’s more, while your friends and family may be content living in their small corner of the world, you want more out of life…
You know that there’s a whole world of things to discover and experiences to be had out there and you can’t wait to get started.
Well, it sounds to me like that’s another sign that there’s more to you than meets the eye.
4) You enjoy introspection
If you’re self-aware and like to analyze your emotions and behavior, it’s clear you’re not shallow and superficial. You have depth.
People with deep personalities are usually quite introspective and self-aware.
And the best part?
They use this self-reflection as a tool for personal growth and self-improvement.
5) You have a strong sense of purpose
The truth is that so many people go through life without a sense of purpose – it’s like they’re just floating through life.
Now, you’re not the kind of person to just go with the flow. In fact, you’re the kind of person who goes against the tide.
What I’m trying to say is that you know exactly what you want and what your purpose is. You’re willing to work hard and do whatever it takes to get there – even if it means going against the tide.
In case you’re wondering if that’s another sign that you have a deep personality, my answer is “yes!”
All-in-all, having a strong sense of purpose is a sign of emotional depth and complexity.
6) You’re comfortable with silence
It could be argued that people who blabber on non-stop do so because they’re afraid to face the void inside them.
Well, you don’t have that problem, now do you?
It doesn’t matter if you’re with other people or by yourself, you don’t feel the need to fill every moment of silence with conversation, TV, music, or social media. You actually enjoy moments of quiet mindfulness.
7) You’re intuitive
I’m talking about that gut feeling that hasn’t let you down so far.
Turns out that a strong sense of intuition is another sign that you have a deeper personality than you think.
The fact that you can pick up on people’s vibes and know when someone is lying and when they’re telling the truth means that you’re in tune with your thoughts and emotions.
8) You’re self-motivated
It’s not about money and status for you. You don’t need any external motivators, you have an internal drive that’s pushing you to pursue your goals and dress.
Remember how I mentioned a sense of purpose? Well, that’s what keeps you motivated!
And not just motivated, you’re very much dedicated and not easily deterred by minor setbacks and obstacles.
Take it from me, you’re quite something.
9) You see shades of grey rather than black and white
Only shallow people see the world as black and white – good and bad.
But you’re not shallow, you know that there are many shades of grey in between. You know that it’s not as simple as someone being “good” or “bad” and that there are so many different factors that need to be considered.
And the fact that you can hold multiple and even contradictory ideas or emotions all at once is a surefire sign that you have a deeper personality than you realize!
10) You have a strong creative side
Last, but not least, if you have a natural talent for creative pursuits like writing, painting, dancing, singing, or playing an instrument, that’s another subtle sign that you have a deeper personality than you think.
You see, people with deep personalities are usually creative and artistic types with an active imagination and they express themselves through artistic and creative endeavors.
I hope this article helps you understand why you feel different and that you realize that your deep personality is a wonderful thing.
