真的很巧,
這趟旅程當中的一些對話,
讓我的腦海浮現一個問題:
為什麼"社會期待"對個體的影響是如此的無遠弗屆?
所謂"常模"的影響力似乎並不受國界、民族、族群而減低!
回來後也開學了,
在Health survey的課裡,
老師跟我們玩了一個好玩的小測驗-
THE MARLOWE-CROWNE SOCIAL DESIRABILITY SCALE
結果還挺能解釋為何我會有這個疑問浮現,
而其他大部分的人則很能將此視為"理所當然",
因為他們可能都是企業篩選任用時所謂的"好人(good person)"。
但其實老師鼓勵我們不要過度的以社會期待為完全的思考依歸,
否則無法發揮自我與創造力,
我想太守規矩可能也會無法很快樂吧?
還是其實如果完全甘於依循規範而行,
既使是簡單的完成日常作息也會很快樂呢?
對你什麼是重要的?
什麼是你成就與快樂的來源?
先找到這個答案,
然後就開始去追尋你的快樂吧!
