The problem of changing character has always been important in modern society. Some people confirm that doing extreme sports improves your character and makes it stronger while others disagree with them.

As for me, I think that extreme sports definitely help to build character. To begin with, such kinds of sport help develop some qualities. For example, discipline and persistence. Moreover, extreme sports help you fight fear. Being able to overcome your fear is an important characteristic in every person. In addition, extreme sports help to increase your willpower. If you want to achieve your goals, you need to have this quality.

However, there are some people who have a different opinion.

They confirm that extreme sports only harm people. Such kinds of sport increase probability of injury. In some cases, you may even die. Moreover, your relatives are always worried about you. You can have a bad relationship with them because of this.

Personally I cannot agree with these statements. Firstly, extreme sports give you wonderful impressions and emotions. It helps a person to get rid of stress and makes him calm. Secondly, extreme sports are often team sports. Such kinds of sport develop the ability to work in a team.

To sum up, even though there are different points of view on this problem, I am sure that extreme sports really help to build character.
