Nature, Nurture vs Our Personality.

Nature can be closely defined as genetic inheritance because is the information encoded in our genes, which a person inherits from both parents at the time of conception and carries throughout life until death genes such as gender, eye color, risks for certain diseases and exceptional talents to height. While nurture can be defined as the factors that there are in our environment that affect us in the human development. Environments such as home school or friends. Environmental factors (nurture) have different forms of impact on human development, also thanks to our genes react to them in different ways. For example, if the nature of the person is to be aggressive and an environment a situation occurs that person would act differently from another whose personality is susceptible.

        My family is made up of 5 people, my parents and two older sisters. Until today I have been able to analyze and conclude that the personality we all have in common is our strong temperament, we easily get angry, we have little patience and we like everything as perfect as possible. I could easily say that this is my personality trait inhered by genes (nature). On the other hand, by nurture personality trait,  throughout my life I have had many bad and good experiences One of them is the change of school constantly and thanks to this, I’m antisocial because I couldn’t get any real friendship for a while so I’m not the person who talks a lot or consider a person who is close to me, as a friend. I was afraid to get really close to someone and then have to leave him.

Around the world each human being has a different personality, maybe some of them are similar but we all have something that differentiates us. My nature of being of a strong temperament has a great influence on being antisocial because it is also one of the reasons for being so. In situations in which we must be patient with others at least for  better communication I usually have many problems because my reaction to a moment of impatience is to be somewhat aggressive because of my strong temperament. In other situations when something I don’t like either personal or in general, I usually say it in an wrong way because I get angry first, when I said in an incorrect way I meant that with my words I hurt feelings of others. Thanks to show aggressiveness, impatience and other personal flaws because of my bad temper towards other people, as a result, they get away from me because they prefer not to share with me many times because they don’t understand me very well and prefer to avoid conflicts with me. That leads me to be more antisocial.
