A personality is often the sum of internal and external influences upon a person. The internal influences in each of us vary and are often the primary action directive of shaping personality. However in a majority of circumstances external influences become the tool that shapes personality subconsciously. External influences affect us more often rather than more effectively. The sum of all effects determines personality.

In character development internal influences will not be directly dealt with. Principles held individually are often concretely embedded are respected and diversity is welcomed. A soft approach to internal influences will be done however by a keen study of ethics.

In the field of external influences there are certain aspects of society that affect us. The degree in which we allow or are encompassed by there aspects help to determine our personality. What is sought is for the student to understand what influences larhgely affect us and the nature of these influences so that the student is able to regulate the effects of the influences ae per needed. This creates an ability to shape personality in a conscious rather than an unconscious fashion.

A study of these influences also aid a more general understanding if the world. While the world converges, education seems to take the strategy of diverging. This has in some circumstances led to over specialization. The work force of tomorrow should be able to multitask in a range of fields simple because they have become interrelated more than ever before. The best strategy for tomorrow is to have a core of specialization and a penumbra of subjects that affect the specialized subject.

And above all you go to a great school for self knowledge (Oakeshott, 1962, p. 200).

In conclusion, the ideal of bridging the system of education with its goals have been lacking in private institutions of higher learning in Malaysia.
