Against the herd

“Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.”

There is truth to the notion that you are the product of your environment.

Your quality of inputs (media, friends, activities) is correlated to the quality of your well-being.

With far too many people over consuming and under-analyzing.

We’ve molded into a population of misinformed citizens.

One of the hardest traits to develop is the skill to defend a view that goes against the status quo.

It’s tough to face the herd, stand your ground, and think for yourself.

Because far too many think and believe only what they hear and see.
