Essay / Attitude is learned behavior - 1106
Attitude is learned behavior. Attitude is a learned behavior that can be changed based on the individual's choice and willingness to change. Webster's New World Dictionary defines attitude in three different ways: the first is a body posture showing mood or action, the second is a way of showing one's feelings or thoughts, and the third is one's disposition. In general, attitudes are the feelings and thoughts you have about yourself and how you interact with others. Attitude plays a determining role in life in society, from the first steps to secondary school, including choosing a university, obtaining a job and choosing a partner. If attitude makes us who we are, gives us our character, then my question to you is: can you really get an "attitude adjustment" or is our attitude set at birth ? For centuries, people have been intrigued by the question of what is human in human nature. To what extent people's characteristics and attitudes come from "nature" (heredity, inability to change) or "nurture" (social environment, contact with others) and the ability to to change. It is certain that physical and mental abilities are established by heredity, like sporting and mathematical abilities. As well as the color of your eyes, the size of your nose and your mother's freckles. Whereas these fundamental orientations of life, like your attitude, are the result of the environment in which we live and can therefore be modified. So what about the cultural side of the equation, or the environment that gives us our attitude? Culture is a system of ideas about the nature of the world and how people should behave in it, shared - and uniquely shared - by members of a community, who continually judge its actions, in the middle of the paper. ..... this attitude can be modified or at least influenced by our environment. Our attitude is a learned behavior that can be changed by the individual's choice to make this change. I agree that a person's attitude begins with their own feelings, values and beliefs, but knowing the values and norms of our culture can also define who we can or should be. After all, if a person could not change his attitude, then how could he grow and learn or simply adapt to his environment. For certain parts of life the plan is laid out by heredity; but to other parties, the individual is a blank slate, and it is entirely up to the individual to change what is written on that slate. Only you can increase your density by doing one simple thing: “adjusting your attitude.” Attitude is your life, yours affects everyone and everyone's affects you.
