I watched an incredible movie last week. It’s an oldie from 1989 but I’d never seen it before. It’s called Dead Poets Society. I won’t give anything away because I highly recommend watching it. There was this one scene where Robin Williams spoke about conforming. It got me thinking about the times in my life when I’d conformed.
Hi Ash, great topic, thanks for putting it out there. I feel like the topic of conforming is almost a taboo subject. For example if you were to ask 100 people do they conform I think one would find most people say NO because they don't want to admit it. I believe society plays a big part in this.... Controlling how we value/show success - we conform to the societal pressures and how it measures success. Does that make sense?
