A many of you know, whenever a new product is released, there are those people who actually like the new product, those who weren’t satisfied for whatever reason, and those who like to “follow fads” and just hop on the side that seems to be a little more influential. For example, DC, a franchise that deals with various heroes such as Flash, Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, is known as the inferior franchise in comparison to Marvel, which deals with heroes such as Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, and Hulk.

The idea that one’s opinion on a certain matter is more important than another individual’s opinion is one of the reasons why some people seem to just “go with the flow”, or follow what everyone else is doing or saying when it comes to certain topics (as opposed to doing or saying how they actually feel).

We see this behavior occur every day at our jobs, on our various social media feeds, and in television shows and movies. Many of us do this because we feel the need to be accepted by others and want to please them; however, as humans, we sometimes forget that public opinion shouldn’t really matter in determining our self-worth.
