Following The Crowd, Where Does It Get Us? #IYP
Following The Crowd, Where Does It Get Us? #IYP
Following the crowd, where does that get us really?
It is a human trait we all fall prey to, this is a fact. Myself included time and time again it happens to me...if I do not know what it is in the end that I want, or what my end goal is.
That is when I will fall prey to it, as well if I do zero research on the "thing" it is that the crowd is following or doing.
We tend to find trust in someone or something (a brand) and from there we (a lot of the time, not all the time) will over ride our own thoughts and processes or research or gut feeling and go with the advice or better yet follow the crowd to whatever the hip new trend is or to whatever all the cool kids are doing.
It's this over ride that has me fascinated, we will give our power away, we will give our self discovery away, we will give our intuition away, we will give our learning process away because we feel or we believe that the person / brand who has recommended a certain something has more power, knowledge, is better than us, you name the reason but each one of us at some point will fall prey to one of them.
I have said this many times 1 thing does not work for every person, there is nothing out there that is a one size fits all cure, yet if we find that our circle of influence is all about it, then we tend to jump on the band wagon possibly without doing our due diligence.
The reason why, I feel from my own experiences is laziness and trusting. I anyway sometimes put that "getting hustled" feeling to the side because I think this person wants the best for me, yet in the end after doing major research and informing myself I see all the flaws in the long run, short term might be pretty awesome, but my goal is longevity.
I also notice that we tend to skip or over look some of the downside or maybe that down side is never even told to us, which makes my wound sting ever deeper. Example would be let's say 'they' forget to mention something like a possible negative side effect, and maybe we even forget to ask about the possible negative side effects. Again why because we trust and take that person or brand for their word, not thinking at all that they maybe just looking at us as another sale (this is not always the case BTW, but basically what I am saying is always do your due diligence before blindly following the crowd)
