People around you are important!
Last week my neighbor asked me that Why do you address your younger daughter always as 'good girl' , 'sharing girl' and so on .I replied to my neighbor that I want her to be a good girl, and hence I am calling her good girl always.Yes;Your word might be the seed for one's success or failure. As a social animal of human, we are interdependent on those who around us. Other people's thoughts ,words, expectation might influence one's behaviour and attitude. I would like to share with you the three psychology experiments to prove that people around you are influencing you which I learnt from the lecture of 'Foundation of social psychology' by Dr.Andy luttrel ,professor of social psychology in Ball state University, U.S.A .
Experiment 1
Influenced by other's thoughts
For a research purpose ,a group of randomly chosen kids were named as intelligent kids and the same list was handed over to the class teacher at the beginning of the academic year.They found that the randomly chosen kids scored high marks compared to the other kids in all the subjects at the annual examination. Teacher's belief was 'selected kids' are really intelligence kids (she didn't know that they were randomly chosen). So she treated or handled them in a manner, that made the normal kids to become really intelligent kids.Teacher's thought (they are intelligent) influenced kids to become really intelligent kids.Experiment 2
Influenced by other's words
Two groups of people's brain were scanned by a scanning machine to find how much happiness they were feeling. For a research purpose, Scanner gave them to drink a small quantity of wine and told them what kind of wine they were given .
Group 2:Scanner gave cheap cost wine but told it is a costlier wine.
The scanner detected higher happiness signal from group 2 people than group1. That means scanner's word about the wine influenced the people more than what they actually drank .
Experiment 3
Influenced by other's thoughts
Person A's expectation is B's behavior is friendly. So person A started to approach person B with friendly manner. So that Person B responded in a friendly way. Thus person A 's expectation influenced person B's behavior.
People around you are influencing directly or indirectly to shape you or mess you up. Family ,friends, society are influencing in building your behaviour. I would like to be remembered as a human who had good family, good friends and better society and I don't ask for anything more than that, actually.
In my perception,
No matter what material(money) you have around you, but the people around you are matter in your life!
Be thankful to your family, teacher, friends!
Be thankful to your family, teacher, friends!
All the very best to make better influence on other's life!
