Cite an example of influences of


culture in your self.

Culture has a significant impact on one's sense of self-identity. It is like a


window, reflecting our beliefs, values, and diversity. Meeting different people every
day is like traveling around the world. The more different cultures you come across,
the stronger your self-concept becomes because you become aware of what makes
you different from other people. There have been times when I have acted outside of
others' roles in society, and they have viewed me as strange, weird, lazy, and so on

properly when interacting with others, because certain behaviors can make us stand
out or blend into society depending on their cultural influences. My values are
derived
from my family and friends, who have influenced me, and as a matter of fact, I have
adopted their viewpoints as my own. As a result, I associate those values with myself
and with other people who share my perspective
