A developed personality is a person who has reached the highest levels of development. Personality developed and not degraded.
Developed and mass personality
The developed personality is opposed to the mass personality. A mass personality usually lives according to the Because principle, being motivated by the past and reproducing patterned behavior. A developed personality often practices the principle To, setting goals and selecting the most appropriate ways and means to achieve them. A mass personality can set goals and achieve them, but these are not their goals. They were informed about them, they accepted them out of fear or from lack of considerations, then they got used to them and began to consider them their own. A developed personality always considers its goals, correlating with its life goals and principles. See →
The main characteristics of a developed personality
As a basis, we can take a description of self-actualization as a result of personality development:
- education and understanding of the path of wisdom, development of positions of perception.
- high values: a sense of responsibility for loved ones, comprehension of quiet post-romantic love and devotion.
- respect for reasonable power and worthy authorities.
- finding your place in life, your vocation, where you can put all your abilities and talents.
- own system of values, the presence of life experience, which includes both real success and serious losses.
- courage in claims and realism in setting life goals.
- calm recognition of death and other inevitable losses, the ability to endure the inevitable, the acceptance of the natural imperfection of the world, oneself and others.
- courage to be good, virtuous people, willingness to accept obscurity, lack of recognition.
The main direction of development of a developed personality
The specific vision in which direction to develop the personality correctly in order to receive the title of “Developed Personality” varies.
The humanistic, client-centered approach sees the ideal of development as a harmoniously developed personality, a personality with a uniform development of all sides and living without internal conflicts, with internal harmony. See Harmoniously developed personality.
A realistic, socially oriented approach sees the ideal of development as a hierarchically developed person who has fulfilled his tasks in front of something Higher for him (family or society. In a religiously oriented approach, before God). See Hierarchically developed personality

Power and discipline in the hands of a developed personality
Power, especially authoritarian power, in the hands of a developed personality is useful. The demand for discipline coming from a developed personality usually has an adequate character (“There are many of us. So that we can listen to everyone, those who want to speak out will raise their hands!”) And develops independence. See Power and Personality
