Hello all!
I am aiming in writing this blog to foster a better understanding of people in relation to conflict and competition. I have an MA in Applied Sociology and am an avid fan of sports. I believe that with this knowledge, I can help people realize that competitiveness is a part of our human nature and there are ways to channel this in a good direction. If you look at my profile you will see that I have just recently started another blog "Total Chaos....", in this blog I attempt to dissect and shed light on social movements that do not recieve media attention (or not enough). I have worked as part of the "media" and I use this term very loosely for some time now and realize that many important world events are ignored. As a competitive person, myself, I feel the need to talk about some controversial stuff...maybe I have a "dare me? double dog dare me?" attitude and thats fine. But this blog will attempt to stay away from the political and deal more with the personal. Many people are ready and willing (as the other blog illustrates) to do some direct action to change their political world, the conflict to them is obvious. But, we all have our conflicts and competitive natures. If we want to truly live in peace, we must acknowledge this and learn how to deal with it.
My plan? Well, here is where I want to take my own direct action. I wish to start perculating ideas in my own little think tank that will help others to feel better about themselves...more purposeful and less put-down. If you want to do some political stuff...be my guest to see what is on other blogs, if you want to learn how to live in peace without the protest, stick with this blog...after things have perculated, I hope I can do some outreach "stuff" to save the world from "psychobabble'. I am a huge proponent of good health and mental health, as well (of course), I am just put-down and pretty po'ed with what I have had to deal with in the psychology community, so there must be another way. Let's find it and in perfect time for New Year's resolutions!
Thanks for the visit :)
MJ
