To each their own…..right? Is this really the case when it comes to personality? We all have our own unique personalities that make us who we are and influence our daily lives, which might cause us to pose the question, “How much control do we have over these traits?” Furthermore, one might ask, “Is there a way we can control these characteristics or are they given to us from birth?” In order to recognize my own distinct personality traits which have contributed to the person I am today, let us take a look at my “psycho-auotbiography.” First, I will discuss a primary analysis of my personality, as it will provide a deeper understanding of the nature versus nurture model and help determine which one has had more of an effect on my personality. …show more content…
