Some aspects of personal identity are demonstrated by the way you dress and how you socialize with others in the society. Personal identity is faced with several problems like who am I Locke’s view that we are not mere souls nor substance Locke considered identity to be based on memory and not on the essence of the soul or body.

Consequently, this can be cultivated through good habits in childhood. An adage goes that “sow an act and you reap a habit. Sow a habit, and you reap a character”.
