Personality

My personality has been most influenced by the environment that I live in. Growing up on a farm and being able to run around and do whatever has consequently affected me today. My friends have definitely influenced my personality because of the cliques we have formed and the social norms we must conform to. Also my involvement in sports and the activities I participate in. The defense mechanism I use most is reaction formation, if I have a big project due and I hear everyone say it’s taking them a long time I tend to underestimate it and suppress my feelings of punctuality by putting it off. In this chapter I enjoyed learning about many of Sigmond Freud’s theories I found many of them interesting and funny.
