Did you know there have been many studies done on cognitive ability in humans when it comes to stress? It is amazing how much psychologists know today, and they have found that those with low self-esteem have decreased cognitive abilities when they feel that their ego is threatened. Consider that if you will? Also consider the current state of affairs when it comes to social networks online. So many young teenagers these days are told that everyone is a winner, everyone is equal, and no matter how good you are, it is the team that helped you get there.
Essentially this is taking away their individuality, and there is no wonder why we have such a low self-esteem problem. As I was watching the interviews at the 2012 Olympic Games after each medal was awarded, I saw people with very high self-esteem and high self-confidence levels, the kind of attitude that my generation had growing up. It?s not like that today, people are so unsure of themselves, their afraid to try new things to make the grade to chase their goals and dreams, and can?t even figure out what their major might be in school. Worse, they have totally succumbed to authority to the point that they need to ask everyone if it?s okay if they use the restroom.
Now then, considering how things are shaping up online, and how socialist theory is creeping into our society, and then coupling that with the information I gave you in the first paragraph; that people of low self-esteem lose their cognitive ability and decision-making skills when they feel threatened that their ego is being attacked ? perhaps you can understand this next statement I?d like to make; maybe that?s why everyone is so dumb these days. Of course, I?m not allowed to say that in public, because you might be putting people down, and hurting their self-esteem.
But did you notice something else about the statement above? That those with low self-esteem were affected, but those with high self-esteem or highly self-confidence levels actually were not affected as much. Why do you suppose that is? It?s because if you believe in yourself, you don?t need the rest of the world to hold you up, tell you how to live, or become your nanny. You can make decisions on your own, and you are fearless to do so, whereas if you have a low self-esteem, you just turn off if you feel someone is threatening your ego.
Worse, you are more likely to feel threatened if you have so little ego to begin with. Perhaps we need to kick all the psychology professors in their rear ends and tell them that we are a nation of winners, and we don?t like their finagling with our society. That?s just a thought (aka personal opinion), but I ask that you please consider all this and think on it.
