Our minds are, indeed, formed and evolved from our habits of body-mind and our existing social/educational life.
Your family is one key root of your personality.
We need to have an open, flexible, modifiable approach to learning and knowing.
Our changing personal needs are furthered by good social relations.
We ride the surf of change in life always with others.
Avoid inflexible and "certain" attitudes and opinions.
Adapt your thinking to your environment.
