Maybe a little, because we all change a little as we go through life, no-one can stay completely the same, I think we learn from mistakes we do and we get compassion as we get older but I think a little of our old personality is always there.

I totally disagree with this. What is needed is the will to change, when we are children we may have certian personality traits, but we are in control and can change these. As a child I had a terrible temper, but as an adult I have a very calm temperment. I chose not to remain angry when I realized that it was of no benefit to me.

I believe people are born as a "clean slate" and the experiences they have during their lifetime continuously shape and mold their personality, like a lump of clay. The more you play with it, the easier it is to manipulate. Yes, people can change...I have witnessed it.

I think that our personality will always stay the same no matter how we change it. For me I think it's how you manage your personality that affects how you are as a person.

Yes i can change my personality. If i found that there is something wrong or i am doing something wrong with my personality then i can change it. I think it's not a big deal. Moreover it's a good habit.

The only constant thing in this world is change. Everyone is entitled to change. Though oftentimes people do not change to be better they tend to lean and become worse. But it still depends on the individual.
