Topic: Is your personality shaped by genetic characteristics
or by environmental factors?
Our personality is a blend of characteristics we have inherited from our
family and we have also formed through our upbringing.
In my case, shyness is a characteristic of mine that I think it is
inherited, because not only my mother but also my sister has the same characteristic. Another important factor that makes me believe this is that although from a young age I socialized with a lot of people, especially friends of my family, I always felt very embarrassed when I was with them. In addition, I have to say that I don’t face this problem when I am with my friends but only when I meet new people.
Another characteristic of mine that is inherited is my aptitude to
drawing. Without ever having attended art lessons I won the local art competition and a famous editor offered me a job as a cartoonist in his newspaper. Because of that I believe that it is an innate talent.
As for my love for outdoor activities I think that it has to do with my
upbringing. And that’s because when I was a little child my family would organize excursions and trips in which I met different cultures and I learnt new things. I’m sure that if it hadn’t been for my upbringing I wouldn’t be a worshiper of fun.
All things considered my opinion is that our characteristics are
combination of both inherited characteristics and those ones that have been formed through our upbringing.
