People are like sheep

25 June 2008 | No Comments » |

One thing I have noticed about people is that they are like sheep. One person is usually always the trend setter, and another is the follower. I always questioned what type of person I would be in life. The one that follows what the rest of the world is doing, or the one that makes fresh things happen. The one that takes chances on things that are sometimes at first mocked by others.

If its one thing I have learned, its that people don’t like change. They like what is familiar to them. Its only over a period of time that you get people used to something, and then there is a spillover effect. What basically happens is that after a majority accept something the rest will follow suit no matter what. This however is not always easy with all things. With politics it takes sometimes longer for people to accept things, but when it comes to the latest fashion and trends its all gravy. Interesting how things like this work.
