Resisting Herd Mentality
Madness is rare in individuals—but in groups, parties, nations, and ages it is the rule. — Friedrich Nietzsche
It is a common saying that you should not follow herd mentality. If a person around you is indulging in a certain thing that you perceive to be wrong, you should not succumb to peer pressure and maintain the integrity of your individuality. Having an original perspective will give you an edge over the others in your area.
