Our personalities are predefined as a result of our genes before we are born and there is nothing can be done to change our character traits to what extent do you agree?
Genes are fundamental components in living organisms, shaping various characteristics, including personality traits. Some believe that human personalities are entirely determined by genetics and are therefore unchangeable. However, while genetics undeniably influence certain aspects of our character, I argue that they do not entirely define who we are. Environmental factors, such as the "21-day rule" and cosmetic surgery, can significantly alter personality traits and behaviors.
