Day 14: Survival Kit or Barrier of Consciousness?
Yesterday we stopped at the point that we often don’t talk or behave differently because someone is forcing us to, but because we’re afraid to stand out. That’s where social conformity comes in.
People like to blend in. Even if it means doing and saying things they wouldn’t otherwise. We’d rather agree in silence than stand out in truth.
- We laugh at bad jokes.
- We don’t share our opinion if no one else does.
- We stand up to applaud because everyone else does.
These aren’t conscious decisions. They’re reflexes.
But what happens if we step out of line? Sometimes nothing. Sometimes people look at us strangely. Sometimes they ask why. Most people don’t need a leader, they just need someone to blink first.
Conformity isn’t always a bad thing. Sometimes it functions as a useful survival reflex. But other times, it acts as a barrier to conscious, authentic action.
Do you know which one guides your actions in each situation?
