​​Personality.

Since birth, every person has a lot of neurons in the head, and there are practically no connections between them — a blank slate. Connections begin forming as the world around us affects our senses, sending appropriate electrical impulses to the brain. The sheet fills up slowly but surely. And as a result, connections gradually create us as we are at the moment.

Who we consider ourselves to be is just a set of certain well-established connections that were formed under the influence of external stimuli. In what categories a person thinks, how he behaves, what he talks about with others, what he dresses in, what he eats... It all depends on what influence the environment had on a person.

If a person grew up in an environment where it is customary to constantly complain, express dissatisfaction, condemn other people, he will unconsciously play this pattern of behavior and project his unhealthy outlook on others.

In childhood, the brain is more flexible, it is able to create stronger connections. From birth to about six years of age, most of the neural connections are formed in the brain. This is the time when the strongest behaviors are created. Therefore, socio-cultural education so strongly influences the formation of the personality.

In the process of growing up, the brain is loaded with various rules, norms, restrictions that a person follows in adulthood, even if they are already destructive.

All our fears, reactions, role models are a set of well-established neural connections through which an electrical impulse passes. And the same attitudes revolve in the head on repetition, forcing them to perform the same actions.

The presence of a prefrontal cortex in a person makes it possible to choose models for responding to an external stimulus. Our brain is able to shift its reactions from one neural circuit to another. At every moment, we have the right to decide whether to go with the flow of our automatic reactions or to direct the impulse along other paths.

This feature gives homo sapiens the ability to create almost any personality out of themselves. The adult brain is no longer as flexible, but it is still capable of forming strong connections. It just takes longer than in childhood.
