RE: Conformism: Or How We Lose Our Identity To Fit In

in #psychology7 years ago

I liked the quote.
Yes, conformity is more comfortable, but it's not the best choice in many situations. People that go with the crowd rarely get recognition. If you have a different opinion than the group you are in, you need to speak up - it may be a better one. And you may find that you don't belong among them. Searching for people with similar views to yours may take you to better places.

For sure the friendships I value the most are the ones where we see eye to eye on most things but aren't afraid to challenge each others ideas.
