To follow
To follow
Most of us have been taught to follow the crowd. We subscribe to “tribal” thinking, which is the thinking of the masses. It is not easy to break from this type of thinking, or non-thinking. A lot of people find this a huge stumbling block because they believe what social, political, religious and other authority figures have told them is “true”.
There is a lot of fear tied up in leaving the tribe. However, you will never experience true freedom or riches unless you learn to think for yourself. But to do this, you must be capable of critical thought – which is something the members of the tribe cannot do.
I’m convinced that true freedom and riches requires you to think contrary to what the tribe is thinking. And it ALWAYS requires you to question the beliefs you hold. On everything. This is not easy because we are addicted to certainty.
We would rather be certain about our beliefs than face the fact that what we believe may not be “true”. But the more you question what the tribe believes the more you will realize that they are hypnotized

People are indeed afraid to think differently from the masses. While the masses are often wrong and astray. The leaders among us have overcome that fear and dare to think for themselves instead of following the masses and the media.,Education should not teach us what to think, but how to think!
