Showoff - Personality - Articles about Psychology

Tsumi is an abbreviation for the Hebrew words tsumet lev �� , which is a negative way of getting attention. It means attention but it's a negative term.

It's the person who likes to get attention. Some people need it. Some people need the others to watch them, pay attention to them, and they might need this frequently, and they might do strange things in order to attract this attention.

Most commonly, you can expect the people who are having tsumi personality traits to be showoffs. They like to do strange or funny things, sometimes silly things, so that people will pay attention to them.

People find them funny and this encourages them to do it again. People find that they are silly. And sometimes people find that it is just interesting to watch a person make a fool of themselves.

The person who gets the tsumi is not as concerned about being a fool because his goal is not to impress the audience by whether he is a fool or a clown, but by getting the attention. The attention is the important issue and not the way that people will thing about him after having received this attention.

The person who demands tsumi basically has an intense sense of insecurity and the tsumi is a negative trait.

In some cases you might find people who have a different side to their personality. They not only require tsumi, but they are also people who feel very secure about themselves on other occasions. They might be clowns or actors or they might get their tsumi at parties but on other occasions you may find that they have important things and that they are indeed fakers.
