different situations we experience in life may be of   great influence   in our personality. it 's clear that a critical moment may change many decisions we could take.

in someway, refering to the book's description of the facts,   it's difficult to state how a person could feel commited, or willing to achieve his or her goals in life and to focus on his or   her personality development.

the person may lose interest on how he or she is or looks like, or even who he or she is. the main focus is trying to survive, or suffer less, looking forward to eating, dreaming about being free one day.

in this situation is very difficult to think about development. it's rather impossible.

glamis thou art, and cawdor; and shalt be what thou art promis'd; yet do i fear thy nature; it is too full o' the milk of human kindness to catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great; art not without ambition; but without the illness should attend it. what thou wouldst highly, that wouldst thou holily; wouldst not play false, and yet wouldst wrongly win: thou'dst have, great glamis, that which cries, "thus thou must do, if thou have it: and that which rather thou dost fear to do than wishest should be undone." hie thee hither, that i may pour my spirits in thine ear; and chastise with the valor of my tongue all that impedes thee from the golden round, which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem to have thee crown'd withal.

he lacks courage.  

he has moral scruples.
