A person who is governed more by emotional decisions rather than intellectual are usually free spirits rather than reserved. A great example of this kind of person would be Hitler. Hitler started World War II purely out of hate. He was angry because in his eyes it was the Jews fault that the Germans lost World War I, so he decided it would be better to kill the Jews and everyone else who was not “normal”. This was obviously an action performed out of pure emotion and it is a great example of why some people should tone it down sometimes.

People who act off of intellect rather than emotional are more conservative. For example, in The Avengers when Iron Man decides to fly the nuclear weapon through the portal he knew he was not going to come back, but he still went anyway. This was clearly intellectual because he was willing to sacrifice himself to save Manhattan. 

Acting intellectually can be good sometimes because people tend to make less mistakes and they do not act selfish. But what fun is that? I guess people should not purely act off emotion but they should not act of intellect all the time either. All that does is fill the earth with a bunch of party poopers who are judgemental and cannot have fun. Im not saying all intellect actors are like this just most. I am usually governed off of emotional thoughts rather than intellect. I want to have fun and I am probably the most selfish person you will ever meet, but I do not care.

Love and Companionship.

People need love and companionship! Why you ask me? Well because noone wants to be alone, obviously. One reason nobody wants to be alone is because people need someone to share everything with. For example, if a person is going somewhere fun on vacation they are not going to want to do it alone. They will probably bring a friend to enjoy the fun with them. Or Cedar Point for example, each cart holds two people NOT one. Nobody wants to be alone whether they admit it or not.

When something happens to a person they usually want to share it with someone else for moral support and encouragement. For example, when a child gets an A on a report card their going to want to tell their parents and friends. They will probably tell them simply just for praise. It feels good to be admired in any way. Another example would be when a woman is expecting or just had a child. This is a huge moment in her life and of course she is going to want to share it, so that people will support her in what she does. Support and encouragement help ones self esteem, evevrybody needs it.

Rejection

     Rejection

I interviewed Willie on how he would feel being rejected and he said : "It would have been very very surprising, because usually I do not get rejected. Girls are always on my jock. Probably cause I am 290 lb. of pure sexy." I completely agree with him on his views, they are very logical and obvious. Who could resist that face? And although he seemed very surprised, I do imagine like any other human being he felt the pain of rejection. And like Willie, no one deserves to feel rejected.

I define personal responsibility by taking responsibility for your actions and accepting the consequences that come with them. I also define it by people accepting the fact that they are solely responsible for their decisions in life and can not blame others for what they choose to do. People tend to forget that they are choosing the path and direction of their life: no one else.

A major way in which teenagers tend to not take personal responsibility for themselves is during their high school years, where they make the most mistakes. Teenagers who make mistakes and come from a background of strict parents usually blame their parents for their mistakes by saying they did not get enough freedom. But those teenagers fail to realize that their mistakes are the exact reason they did not get freedom, they obviously would have abused it. Teens who have more lenient parents blame them for not being strict enough. For example, girls who get pregnant as teens usually blame their mom for not having her on lock down. But that is no fair to your parents because you chose to do what you did. So evidently teenagers are never satisfied with the parents they get.

When something bad happens that involves me I always know when to take personal responsibility. I know this by looking at the situation and then determining whether if any of my actions or decisions could have changed the situation. For example some people blame themselves when a family member dies of natural causes. They say things like "I could have done more" or "This is all my fault", but it is really not nothing they could have done would have saved their loved one. That is why I always know when I am responsible for my actions, because I let go the sense of over responsibility of others and there are just certain things that impact my life alone. So when I choose not to do my homework I am not going to blame my mom for not forcing me, because whether i want to go to college or not is my decision; not hers. :D

Exploration and Stuff

Well back in them days (18th century) they usually explored by getting on a ship and leaving home. They had really bad conditions and it was gross. Usually they went to the poles. Then in the 19th century they used horse and buggie to get around. Nowadays we hop in a shuttle and leave earths atmosphere. Most people who devote themselves to a life of exploration and discovery usually do it just for the fame and fortune. The ones who dont do it for that reason are extraaa rare. Most are sacrificing their family, friends, hygiene, and good food. Which I  think is stupid cause most of the time the land was already discovered. For example, idk why Christopher Columbus thinks hes cute, like dude the indians were there first. All you did was kill them and then slap your gross name on the country :b
