Listen "The herd mentality"
Episode Synopsis
Hey There! This is Harsh Patel, the host of the podcast, Within 5 minutes.
The fourth episode of the podcast talks about the herd mentality.
Have you ever found yourself agreeing to the majority when it comes to voicing your opinions? Do you sometimes find yourself relying on your friends, parents, or colleagues when it comes to making important decisions in your life? Do you feel it would be embarrassing to do things that are out of the box?
If you found yourself saying yes to any of these, then you’ve been part of the herd mentality like the rest of us.
Denying to agree upon something that 9 out of 10 people agree upon makes our brain so uncomfortable that logic and reasoning take a backseat and we feel safer being part of the majority. The idea of following the herd is soothing as it eliminates the fear of the unknown. The biggest reason why most of us find it hard to make a decision is that we’re afraid that if we fail, everyone would mock us for trying something that is different. But you know, it may turn out better than you imagined
It’s not really about finding happiness but living your life under your own principles and sense of truth. For even in a crowd, you can be alone.
