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


Research indicates that the characteristics we are born with have much more influence on our personality and development than any experience we may have acquire in our life lives. However, whether it is true is a debatable issue. In my opinion, experience that we acquired acquire from life would plays a more critical role.

First, it is obvious that there is not too much difference among people when born out at birth. However, everyone cultivated cultivates his/her his or her own mind, interests, and psychological characteristics, which have a decisive effect on personality while growing up. Subsequently, he/she he or she would choose the a favorite aspect to make study or work on it, which leads thus leading to development. So, we can say that the different varied experience people have acquire in their life lives made makes the difference.

Moreover, if one has had no experience, he/she he or she cannot could not apply his/her his or her talent into practice, so that talent would become invaluable be wasted. For instance, if a person who is born with a distinct gift for drawing who did not study any skill and has no or practice would be unable to draw render an excellent work drawing. It would be just vague imaginations images in his or her brain which that cannot could not be expressed.

That is not to say that innate characteristics do not have an important influence. Of course, talent might directs one’s development to a certain extent, but it cannot replace any the experience we need to gain from life to cultivate our personality and obtain further development.

In sum, experiences we may have in our life lives make differences in both our personality and development. Meanwhile At the same time, we also should not neglect the innate characteristics, since they may reflect that in which part area we can perform better. By doing so, we can make a combine between talent and experience, thereby, gaining a lasting development.
