Peer Pressure

Darryl Bachmeier Jun 10, 2020 Social
No man is an island! Building relationships especially with persons of similar age range is inevitable in life. In fact, it is an important aspect of social conditioning that reflects that as humans, we are bound by some mysterious arrangements to befriend individuals who share similar interests and like-passion with us. These are our peers, our friends. However, identifying with a group of friends or peers comes with its challenges, which are notably associated with the pressure of meeting up with the standards of the group. This could get sour sometimes especially when one is inspired wrongly and pressured to act in a particular way that negates morality simply because one’s mates are acting that way. What exactly is peer pressure? Peer pressure entails the influence members of a similar social group can have on one another. Briefly, it is the case where you desire to be part of something...

How to Make Real Deep Connection with Someone

Darryl Bachmeier Jun 10, 2020 Social
Most of what we have nowadays as relationships are not what it used to be. Now, it seems we all are in a hurry. We are driven by own selfish inclinations. We want to quickly end a conversation and trot off like wasps into the comfort our solitude offers. We seem to have forgotten the value of social capital. Even for those who claim to sustain relationships, research has proven that it’s no more than a superficial endeavour. They aren’t really connected to their cronies. If this wasn’t so, a research on self-isolation in America would not have revealed that most people have just one person or none at all that they share their personal problems with. Indicative of this is that we all have gotten so paranoid! To make matter worse; the social media has contributed in no small measure to reducing real life, person to person interaction into...

Focus on the good in others

Darryl Bachmeier Jun 9, 2020 Social
Don’t you want to live a positively present life? Well, finding the good in others is an essential part of it. However, it can be challenging. It’s especially hard to focus on the good in others when you’ve been disappointed so many times… But let me tell you a secret – when you expect good from others, they feel more motivated to actually do good. Maybe you disagree, but I think that all people are essentially good. Just focus on their intentions if you don’t believe me. Even when people don’t do good things, most of the time, they did have good intentions. Focusing on the good in others isn’t about putting rose-colored glasses on. It’s about taking the smug-colored glasses off and seeing things clearly for the first time in a while. The truth is, when you focus on the good in others, you aren’t ignoring the facts, you’re...

Importance of Family

We all want to belong, it is our inherent desire, and it’s why we cooperate, support common causes, feel nationalism, and that’s the reason for building villages, or cities. Fortunately, for us, that desire has been begun with loving parents and siblings in a home, which was our laboratory for experimenting with our potential, beliefs, and identity. Family is the first and the most critical place for involving in, as it meets our belonging needs in addition to having people by our side through hard times, providing us with confidence, and helping us to be strong enough to face our problems.

Are you the reflection of people you spend time with?

Darryl Bachmeier Mar 20, 2020 Social
You are free to choose your actions and words. You have the power to change your outcomes. We all believe this myth; it is a myth because this is not applied to all the situations. Sometimes we are simply influenced by the social influence circulating us. We tend to behave based on the environment and the environment is made of people and other living beings along with climatic conditions. Social influence and the human mind Influence is uncontrollable as we are a part of this society we belong to we have 50% of its influence. But this also depends on several other factors for example, how easily we are convinced by others, how flexible we are, how much we pay attention to them, how frequently we interact within a certain social environment and so on. For example, if someone works in a bar it is more likely for the person...
