On Being a: Real Person—

| Real Person Achieves High Degree of Unity in Himself

By DR. HARRY EMERSON FOSDICK The phrase “real person” is not to be taken for granted as though | its meaning were plain. Certain qualities, such as courage, fortitude and dependability are clearly called for in a genuine personality, but

beneath’ such virtues is a deep-running psychological process, and the |

criteria of success in handling it are not superficially obvious. One reason for this is that personal life is essentially dynamic and | ‘State Educators Plan for

to make an effective personty. Some individuals are like | brush heap, a helter - skelter, llaneous pile of twigs and bramiches; others, like a tree, in8 the same kind of materials,

When -Self Appears As growth continues; the very conflict between these dissident traits ‘forces ‘a further synthesis: Selves appear, each “self” a group of traits fairly consistent within | its own range, but differing from, often incongruous with, other “selves” in the same person. There is the “self” one is at home, the “self” one is in the schoolroom, the “self” one is on the athletic field, and later there are the “selves” that diversely appear in business, in the church, on the golf links—each man having, says William James, “as many differ ent social selves as there are distant groups of persons about whose opinion he cares.” Often these “multiple selves” are in bitter conflict—Dr. Jekyll against Mr. Hyde—so that, like states that cannot get together under a fed‘eral government, they fall apart into disunity and war. Strange and even comical incongruities appear in consequence—

When the enterprising burglars

from mere “multiple selves” into’

the poise, balance, and cohesion of a unified personality.
