Since the olden days, people say most personality is inherited from their biolo

Successful individual is found in many places now days. Many people say that they are a successful person. For them they are successful with their life and they make people see them being successful also, this makes others call them a successful individual. Someone who has no ambition or any goals can neither be said success nor failure. Life is not a contest therefore there is nothing to be judged. There are many reason or many qualities to justify a person as a successful individual. A successful individual maybe said as someone who is very happy in their life and very contented with their professional or even their career and also with their family or their personal life. A person’s successfulness also can be said because of the money and the fame they have. There are many ways to say that a person is successful. There are many different qualities that make an individual to be said as a successful person. For me, there are a number of qualities that make me justified in calling a person successful.

The very first quality that I feel justified in calling a person successful is their willingness in doing a work. A person who really wants to be successful is always willing to dig into things deeper and do all the work given to them correctly. A successful person is always willing to do whatever it takes to create the life they want. They are people who make their life successful, they create their own life, they are not the type of people who says that fate is everything, and let the fate do its work. For me, this is the first quality of a successful individual, their willingness.

Secondly, I think that a person with open mind and open thinking is one of the qualities that a successful person should have. Successful people are always open to many new ideas. They always think differently, they always think a new way of doing things, and they never stop thinking what is best for their life, and things that makes their life even better. Successful people don’t close themselves off from information that helps them in their life or career. They are always ready to hear and find out about new things that will be very helpful to their life or maybe it might help a lot for their work.

Other than that, another quality that makes me justify a person is successful is their courageous. Successful person are often risk-takers, which can be said as courageous person. They are vey daring in the things they do. They tap the courage that lives deep into them and use that courage for their successfulness. They try out many new things that give them ideas for their lives. They always put themselves out in front of others to make other see their successfulness and learn for them but this doesn’t mean that they are being proud but they are making others want to be successful also.

Another quality that should be in a person called successful is being committed to their work or to the things they do in their life. A successful person should always be committed in what they are doing and in what they want. People who are committed will stay focused in their goal even if it takes months to achieve it. A successful person who is committed in their work will see the success in a big picture which will be the big gain in their life and that will help them stay focused and keep them motivated in everything. Being committed to something that will take a long time to see the success make a person to be patient and wait for their success. This is what I say a successful individual.

Additionally, being persistent is another quality that makes a successful person. Persistent means being determined. There is no such thing as giving up for a successful person. They never give up on anything that they do. They make sure that they find ways to make a thing that they are doing a success. This is why they are called as a successful person. For a successful person, success is 98% and 2% is their talent. They always say to themselves that they can do it no matter what happens, they seldom give up, and they gather all the things or information they need to make their work a success. This is they quality that should be in a person who says themselves as a successful person.

Furthermore, being adaptable and flexible is another quality that a successful person should have. A successful person should always go with the flow in order to get thing done. Being adaptable with the place we are or the people we are with is a way to success. Take things easy, learn to be with many type of people and learn from them is the smartest way to walk in the road of success for our lives. Other than that, a successful person also should also have the quality of being flexible. Being flexible with their boss or colleagues is another way to climb up the stairs of success. Therefore as for me, a very good quality of a successful person is being adaptable and flexible.

Another quality that makes me feel justified calling a person successful is their creative mind. Having a creative mind is a good way to make work done fast. Successful people who have creative mind know how to solve their problem with creative and innovative thinking. When given a work to do and ask to do it with creative new ideas, a successful person with a good creative mind wouldn’t have a problem doing the work. A lot of new ideas should be given, a successful person always thinks out of the box, look around for new things to be taken foe the work, scroll around there and here to get new things. A successful person should always be creative and does work without fail and submit in right at time.

More than that, there are still a few more qualities that I feel a person should have in order to call them successful; being spiritual. Being spiritual is another good quality that a successful person should have in order to have a strong spirit. A successful person should have a deep commitment to their spiritual side of their life. Successful person understand their life is more than just a life but is it a deep feeling that come within their life. A successful person let their spirit guide them, but in the right way of course. They follow what is right and they know how much their life important is for them. Our soul is the powerful thing in any life form and it can do wonders.

Another quality that should be in a successful person is patient. Patient is very important for everyone in this world but as a successful person, it is more important for them. That is because patients can even change a good person to a bad person in seconds. That is why a successful person should have a lot of patient. Success takes a lot of time to build. Successful people are people who are happy, but still they have to allow the things they want to come in their own timing. That is where they have to be patient. Other than that, they also have to be more patient when they are in work place, when there are with some personal problems or family problems. When they get to be to patient and solve the entire problem, which is when they really become a successful person. This is why I include patient as a quality to justify a person is successful or not.

In life, we must take responsibility, 100% responsibility. No matter what happens, we must be responsible and think in way that because of us only that incident took place. It is the decision that we made yesterday that lead us to something in our life today. We shouldn’t keep on blaming others for what we did, if we keep on doing that, we will never achieve anything in our life because we are giving away the power to control the situation and when this always happen we will be never called as a successful person. This is why responsibility is very important as a quality in a successful person. A successful person is a person of taking all responsibility because we are given a work with trust of responsibility that we will go it with our best creative ideas and hard work.

In a nutshell, to be a successful person, we must always believe that we can achieve it. Most people don’t believe that they can do it. They don’t believe that they can be rich or successful in their life. This is why the negative thoughts in a human can downgrade them and never make them successful. We must always believe in what we achieve in, this thinking will automatically open our mind and bring a potential within us, everything becomes possible for us and there comes a successful us in our mind and ourselves. Those were all the qualities that make me feel justified in calling a person successful individual. I also want to be called as a successful person, therefore I guess I must make other say that I have all that qualities but then before that I must plant all that qualities in myself and make it grow with enough sunlight, air and water and never forgetting fertilizer to make the plant in me to be more greenish. I am also a successful person.

gical family and most people are born with similar biological traits. But now many argue that the way a child is brought up is how the personality is shaped. Thus, to be specific, how you nurture a child is the real reason ones personality is so. Nurturing means how a child is brought up; the environment a child is born, the type of situation, or parents’ teaching methods. The family environment is very utmost important to the upbringing of a child. That is where the child firstly experience social influence. Although genes play a part in personalities, but the social environments can greatly affect human’s behavior. Environment of the child is also very vital, in ways like dirty food is not taken into account or hygiene is at utter most importance. Situation by means of rich or poor background, whether the child understands hardship or was spoon fed since young. Parenting skills is at most importance, there are many types but it all has almost the same goal. But little has thought that in a different approach has a different effect on the child. For example, in a rich family a child can be either treated very strict or much laid back. The strict approach might shape a very humble child with respect to others poorer than them that are enduring hardship. While the laid back approach might result to a very egotistical child that is very status cautious whom despises the poor. In the modern world, even the media, peers, good and bad influence or even the society view of things will greatly affect the child. Every Homo sapiens are born with similar biological traits in this world. Genes may vary but the social environment is a major influence in our behavior. English philosopher and physician John Locke has a theory that every human’s mind is a blank state or known as “tabula rasa” when we are born into this world. Only through our life experience that we collect information, and we use heuristic which is an educated guess based on prior experiences that helps narrow down the possible solutions for a problem; also known as a “rule of thumb.”

The social environment is a major influence on human behavior. In my argument, I believe nurture plays a bigger role in our life. Humans in different culture have different sets of norm. We have norms which are standards for accepted and expected behavior. Norms prescribe “proper” behavior. In other words, what most people do, are what is normal. The diversity of culture results in different type of behaviors because of the different kinds of norms, but mostly very similar to one another. For example, the westerners practice individualism which is the concept of giving one’s own goals and defining one’s identity in terms of personal attributes rather than group identifications. On the other hand, the Asians practice collectivism which is giving priority to the goals of one’s group (often one’s extended family or work group) and defining one’s identity accordingly. Hence, Asians are very interdependent self which means construing one’s identity in relation to others. In my opinion, nurture has a stronger argument here because we know that Asians are actually trying to follow the way of the westerners in terms of Asians still being very conservative and the westerners are more open-minded. As time pass, the newer generations in Asia are more open-minded and we can adapt to new situations and change our behavior towards something.

Every human being is unique in their personality but I think that these personalities are triggered when put in different types of situations. Some people like to believe that nature plays the bigger role in their life, but I would like to argue in my defense that, some people were born gifted, no doubt about that but Russian physiologist; Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936) prove that everything can be learned through conditioning which is a type of learning in which a stimulus acquires the capacity to evoke a response that was originally evoked by another stimulus. Therefore, I believe that nurture is the important part of our lives because if we did not have social influence we would all be animals, relying on our innate instincts which are probably only to hunt for food when we are hungry or search for an oasis when we are thirsty. One of the major influences is religion. Religion can really change a person’s thinking and behavior, especially cults.

One very good case study which is the Standford Prison Experiment conducted by Philip Zimbardo dated back to 1971. This is an experiment that shows how the power of social situation empowering a person to distort their personal identities. When a role is internalized into a person, it can change a person’s behavior, it will cause the person to act the role he or she is suppose to play given with the social situation. Zimbardo set up a simulated prison at Stanford University with twenty-four students from United States of America and Canada. He divided them into two groups which are the guards and the prisoners. He wanted to note the psychological effects of becoming a prisoner or guard. The students fell into their roles fairly quick and the experiment had to be terminated earlier than the expected duration. The results clearly shows that the genetic traits are nothing compared to the nurtured traits, but we also have to put all variables into consideration; the environment, situation, methods, and pressures. Though there might be more but these are the most important ones. As for environment, the experiment is conducted in a replica of an actual prison. In which where prison in the society has set it as a “bad boy” place in which people there are condemned. So as you step into it, you will impose a bad impression. While situation is the roles of prisoners and guards are given, where the prisoners are expected to act with bad behavior because of the norms in every culture. While the guards in prisons are expected to act in a superior way that is suppose to overpower the prisoners at whatever cost. These norms are portrayed a lot especially in movies, so it is only natural to adapt into these characters. There are pressures on the way we act or do in our social world, and because prisoners are rebellious, being locked up is not a very nice thing. Even animals do not like to be locked up in a cage. Can you imagine the mental torture? It is like when you were still fifteen years old and your parents grounded you at home for one year. Except that your home is obviously more comfortable than a prison or a cage.

Here is another good example on how social situations can change or somewhat control a person. An experiment conducted by a social psychologist Stanley Milgram on obedience to authority figures. The experiment consist a “learner”, “teacher” and the experimenter. The “teacher” is to ask questions and the “learner” is to answer the questions. But what the “teacher” do not is that the experimenter has instructed the “learner” to answer the questions incorrectly. For every wrong answer the “learner” gives, the “teacher” has to shock the “learner”, and for each shock increases in volts. This experiment was to test the obedience to an authority figure. The experimenter sits in the same room with the “teacher” and the “learner” in another. As the “teacher” shocks the “learner” for answering the question incorrectly, the “learner” screams in pain, but what the “teacher” do not know is that, there is actually no jolts discharging. The “learner” has to act throughout the whole experiment and to see if the “teacher” will continue to shock the “learner” and when he or she pleas to stop the experiment. The result from this was a whopping 65% of the participants – which is 26 of them, went all the way to 450 volts. It goes to show that, whatever the situation and especially with authority involved, we all would actually comply with almost all commands, people change their behavior according to situations. Though there are some “teachers” that refused to go through with the experiment. It has been almost fifty years after the experiment has been conducted and yet, this experiment is still being talked about. In my opinion, it was a harsh experiment to conduct though it did not hurt anyone physically but mentally. In reality, and till today, that people still suffer the same thing especially in military forces, the navy, and other similar squads that involves taking orders from an authoritative figure. The people that join the military forces are to do as told and no questions asked which could sometimes lead to abuse of power.

In my conclusion, I still support the nurture side of this nature versus nurture debate because I believe I have given a few therioes and major experiments or examples that can support my nurture debate. At the end, the social environment is a major influence on human behavior. Given a certain social situation to a person, they will change their behavior or adapt accordingly to the situation. Humans are responsible for their own personality, for they themself imprinted social patterns in society. The society is the creator of the social norms. And thus, the majority of humans that has the same view will influence many others into their social pattern. Social influence is a very strong thing to influence a person which involves peer pressure and pressure to conform. This makes up into a culture but culture consists of many things like the things they do, the food they eat, or even the clothes they wear. Culture is like a principle of norms. By transforming into a norm is to give in to the social culture. Thus, nurturing occurs, while nature is overcomed.
