In your search for a meaningful life, there are a lot of different characteristics that you should actively seek out. However, as much as you’re trying to move in positive directions, it’s vital that you attempt to avoid social ills as well. Every negative characteristic that you can stay away from puts more of your life in the positive category.
So, what are a few of the social ills that you can take steps to prevent or remove from your daily habits? You can stay away from bad driving habits. You can keep away from sexual harassment situations. You can make sure that you are not the ostensible keyboard warrior. And, staying away from echo chambers will make you a broader human being with less potential negativity and ignorance.
Bad Driving:
It’s amazing how many issues are caused by dangerous driving. People choose not to drive defensively. People refuse to deal with their anger issues and road rage. Then you end up having terrible car accidents that never needed to occur in the first place. If everyone followed the rules of the road, avoid distracted driving, and had a generally humble attitude about operating motor vehicles, the world would be a better place.
Sexual Harassment:
Especially in light of current cultural tendencies, it is more important than ever not sexually to harass anyone ever. This applies to males and females and everyone in between. With the amount of information flow that is available right now, it is straightforward to determine what kinds of behaviors are toxic as far as sexual harassment goes, and you should just surgically remove them from any possibility of you ever doing. Learning to recognize your own bad behavior when it comes to sexual harassment is necessary to prevent life-changing consequences in the wrong direction.
Keyboard Warrior Training:
Just because you can say things online anonymously doesn’t mean that you should. There are a lot of people who insist on being keyboard warriors these days, and those interactions online turn into train wrecks. If you would not say something to someone’s face, don’t type it online. That is the easiest rule of thumb to follow if you want to avoid one of the worst social ills that are occurring in current modern history.
Echo Chambers:
If you only read information that agrees with what you already think, then you are taking part in a tragic current social ill. The presence of echo chambers means that people always think that they’re right, and they feel no need to see opinions that exist outside of their personal bubble. This means that people are living in opposing and virtual realities that don’t even exist in the real world, and it is one of the reasons that society and culture are so divisive currently.
