Research indicates that the characteristics we are born with have much more influence on our personality and development than any experiences we may have in our life. Which do you consider to be the major influence?

There have always been arguments about whether qualities are the result of experiences or

whether people

are born with them.
However
, in my opinion, I think they largely depend on the person’s process of growth rather than being born with and can not be changed. On one hand, the only thing a person has after being born is their body and everything within it.
Thus
, an individual’s personality can not be the outcome of their genetics,

Additionally
, having a beautiful body, especially a face, can not give the person a better life compared to others but it

as being knowledgeable or social relationships.
For example

On the other hand
, I strongly agree that accomplishments and events that happened throughout our growth are what define a person’s qualities. If everyone follows the same instructions and rules in order to achieve perfection, it will create nothing but boredom and similarity in

To sum up
, despite opposing perspectives about whether personalities and developments are influenced by what people are born with or by their experiences, I believe that it is the result of daily habits and what they have come across throughout their lifetime.
