How much can you control the person you grow up to be?

I believe that you can control the person you grow up to be to a great extent.  Although some people are more fortunate in the situation they are born into, you make the choices that decide who you are when you grow up.  You can decide to be kind to others and you can decide to make a difference in the world, or you can choose to be unkind and lazy.  There are also many other things you can do now that will affect the person you grow up to be.  You can choose to study subjects at school related to the career you want to have in the future, and you will have a better chance of having that career when you grow up.  As you can see, you can decide who you be when you grow up.
