Lying is probably one of the most common acts people do on a daily bases. People would say the lying is always wrong, but sometimes if that person has a good purpose for a lie, that lie is not always bad. Most of the time, a person chooses to lie to maintain her social connections, protect a loved one’s feeling and to be plain selfish. People want to maintain their existing social connections, so they choose to carry on different faces, and not to speak out when there is a need of truth. They choose to do things totally against their will, and find a reason to cover up their guilt.
They form bonds as a group together rather than being forced together. They want to succeed for the whole group as it is a morale boost for everyone to do well and improve cohesiveness. While on the other hand a group that doesn’t want to work together and doesn’t form a loyalty/bond with one another will ultimately put the whole group’s goals behind them and work for themselves. “Related directly to good communication skills are good listening skills. These skills are extremely important in the communication world.” (Ellis, 2009) 3) This basically says that without listening in a group people will never get their opinions heard and ultimately let down the group.
Many times I see people in school or work that some people cannot hangout with others is either they are stubborn or the group do not want to let the guy in their group because he is so persistent. So in this case the guy must be open minded and change the way he thing so he will be able to fit with other groups and be a normal social person. There is nothing wrong to change your personality to be a better person. Some says when you change your personality you becoming a different person, but that is not true because sometimes change is always good. Of course there are different type of changes, but change your look, act and personality according your age is great so the person can have respect among the people around him/her.
This is how Emerson sees consistency; he is very much against it and looks down upon those who do not change their minds. Honesty has a lot to do with the consistency part of Emerson’s piece. Many people may be afraid to be inconsistent because they fear others will fear they are being dishonest. They have an opinion on something one day, and then the next it is changed. Some can see this as being dishonest and many people in society fear this.
2. What are some key personality features that define you? Some key personality traits that would define me would be that I am always bubbly and happy no matter what is going on in my life. My behavior shows that I will go the extra mile for someone in need and I always try to make everyone happy. Even though I might not please everyone in the long run.
A good example of this is at work if there is a situation at work and you have to resolve it this person looks into different points of view and will do what it’s best for both. It’s a very fair person. They want everybody’s satisfaction. The weakness of being under Result Lens is that you need to learn to reflect on your actions, because if you don’t learn it you will fail in your decisions and your life. People under Result Lens tend to be possessive and sometimes this characteristic drives people away.
Humans can grow up and be conditioned to believe whatever we want them to, it is just a matter of making their brain accustom to a different world or set of beliefs. Brave New World utilizes this by going over the top in showing how most Americans think, close-mindedly. We are so used to thinking along the lines of what we have been taught growing up, socially and religiously, that we reject all forms of other society as wrong. This story really tells of the denial of the World State
If a person continues to deny what God has for them, then their lives will not be happy. “When we take things into our own hands, we have the feeling of being in control. But what or whom do we really control.” (Anderson, 2003, p. 281) There is one problem with someone who is rebellious. They will not want to hear any truths or be shown anything in their lives that they may need to work on. They may think that they are happy and that their lives are going along well, but they will soon find out that they are wrong.
Nobody can take away your level of effort. Another core belief that I have is to always look at the best in things no matter what. This belief helps a ton when you think that things aren't going your way. I got this belief from my parents also. My parents really believed in shaping me into a good person when i was younger.
I don’t interconnect with my pledge brothers how I should. These are the reasons why. Opening myself up to people become difficult at times. When I am inside of a new environment it takes me time to warm up and allow people to see the true me. My reasoning is because most don’t understand me, and they take my demeanor as cockiness.
