Group work
Im supposed to be writing an assignment on group work, and it's doing my head in.
I know what's required.. theories etc.. but I almost want to say.. 'a person or persons will want to dominate, others for sure cant be arsed.. and the rest will follow along. the end.
I wont of course.. I'll try my best to address each point with care and consideration. It's a little like wanting to play a board game at Christmas time, and having someone want to read the rules... to Ludo
Tough one this. lord have mercy somebody save me.

If you think you can.. you probably can
I'm not talking about flying or anything like that.. but simply the power of self belief.
I think self belief is innate in us all at birth, but is slowly eroded away as we grow.
The paradox of self belief is that often it stems from the belief others.. or someone has shown in 'us'. Whether that be a teacher, family member, or tramp on the street. At some point.. at sometime.. a positive exchange occurred that whether a person be conscious of it or not.. had a positive impact.
At some point, self doubt was removed as an obstacle, and belief became a realisation.
Which is why the things we say to others really does matter.
But what if a person never has that 'positive' encounter?? i hear you say... well... to repeat..often, they then lack self belief. This does not mean they will not achieve.. but the route to it may be thwart with the desire to crush or sabotage others, the display of an over inflated ego, or an odd lack of ease or naturality in their demeanour.

Can you ever get too much guidance?
Guidance is all well and good, but it can never replace self responsibility.
I wonder sometimes how much is too much. For example, a child can grow up in a nurturing environment yet still choose a path of what seems like self sabotage, whereas another child can grow in hardship, in a home devoid of love and support , yet pull it all together to achieve whatever they set out to, rejecting what may have seemed like a clear cut route to destruction and a repetition of history.
I think there are bigger things at play as to why things happen, and often if its meant to .. it will.
