Changing makes me nurvous, will I lose my sense of self esteem?
Change includes yourself and other people. Getting to know yourself and others around you, and effective understanding and listening in different situations to grow within yourself.
I believe change isn't always good, but changing certain circumstances to obtain a rather more important role in life matters, more or less an important figure to the younger generations. Cursing could be a big change within yourself as of stopping the cigarette habit could benefit the way you interact with one another can interpret the ways you see who's more important in your life.
Friendships are important. I have relationships, but others are also busy.
Within your family ties, sharing and exchanging information within eachother, (not talking about gossip) more like self-disclosure can help gain relationships.
Talking about what goes on at school or work, and how it reflects you could be a source of self-disclosure with a personal friend.
When I want to talk about something, I tend to hold it in, No clue why.
Reciprocal conversations about ones self can change dramatically, (going back and forth) as telling one another about where your families are from on a dinner date then engaging in deeper conversations, yet co-cultural disclosures differ (male and female), as in talking about personal situations with a partner, to a certain extent.
When I do talk about something, I do so to be able to change the way I tell people about myself. I do get feed back on the same conversation. I don't do dates often, but just "a walk in the park" could make matters better.
Understanding one self, knowing how you think and what you like and how you see yourself. How you obtain information, what you think is right from wrong in your world, and what internal/external barriers that may cause us to lack an understanding like telling one person a figure in a picture but not completely using verbal communications is what changes our perceptions.
Some have to literally critically think and listen in order to make a change (evaluating messages for making sure it's accurately understood, the messsages usefulness and the meaning it could be to one). Change within yourself is more of you perceiving the environment differently. The ways children interact outside, the way you act toward the children outside, so on.
Making change could be for "the better or worse", typically for better if you feel the need to succeed within your self. Change is like going from riding public transportation to buying and using your own car in a matter of time. Either because your tired of seeing different germy people everyday or just because your ready to be on your own.
I, too, am intrigued about "change" and I agree with you that it can be both good and bad. I think humans struggle with the idea of change because the unknown can be so uncomfortable or downright scary.
ReplyDeleteSo keep on the "change" topic. That seems like the overarching focus of this post. You move on to families and disclosure, but I'm unsure what that has to do with change. Things naturally change in conversations, I think you suggest at one point in this text, but how is that "change" in behavior or ideas?
You have some interesting psychology concepts going on here, but I'm no psychology expert. Can you link us to your sources so readers like me can learn more about "co-cultural disclosures."
One of the most interesting points you bring up issues of critical thinking and awareness of our personal situations. On that note, think about the organizational processes of this post. Go from paragraph to paragraph and make sure you see important connections and that the text doesn't feel like you might be skipping or omitting information.
When I saw this title, it immediately caught my attention. Since I graduated high school, I've seen so many people change including myself. Some have changed for the better while most, in my opinion changed for the worse. Life makes us change, but it's our decisions determines our way of change.
ReplyDeleteI agree how you bring up friendships and family. However, I didn't really see how change can be brought up about them. You talked about what you should talk about and not what you talk about could bring up change within someone. I would have liked to see you explain how friendships change and how family can change who you are.
