Behavior of a person is directly related to the person's emotions about the matter, which are given shape by past experiences.These experiences are a result of interaction with other people and his or her surroundings and the environment.Since none of these can be controlled by people , we may say that although a person's behavior can be inferred directly from his life choices and experiences ,it is largely determined by forces not of their own making.

Behavior of people is completely the outcome of their surroundings and environment,along with some other factors such as past experience possible future endeavors. For example,a child whose every whim is fulfilled may turn out to be a brat or a person may fear and thus dislike something because of past experience of an analogous situation. Behaviors in animals and thus human beings are mainly the outcome of emotions such as fear,anger or love which are in turn shaped by previous experiences and their surroundings.

Behavior of a person is not something inherited at birth,babies behave the same way at birth but it is their upbringing and experiences that mold a persons life and his/her behavioral characteristics. A persons fear of fire may be the cause of a previous personal accident or an accident of a known person.Laziness may be a result of having lower number of responsibilities or lack of care about the matter both of which may be attributed past personal experiences ,for example lack of responsibilities may be the cause of a different upbringing and the lack of care may be the cause for past unpleasant experience.

What people refer to as free will is actually the outcome of past experience or in some cases ,a gut feeling,which is actually a result of experiences molding the person at the subconscious level.In case of new situations our brain always tries to find and analogous situation ,for example a person may dislike computers because he might have had bad memories with some other new electronic gadget.

In conclusion we may say that a persons behavior may be completely be defined as the effect of forces not of his own making since he cannot control the outcome of his decisions which may lead to failure or success which in turn adds to his personal past experience molding him in a new way.
