Lesson 3: We are a conditioned people Man has been conditioned by the outside influences that surround him. Just like a coin, there is always two sides to one thing. Influences have the positive or negative sides too. One of the mmost common conditioning in our society is talking about Policeman. When a kid is playful and naughty, the parents always tell the kid that the policeman will catch them. It create the fear in the kid since young and give them the thought that the policeman will catch people that do bad stuffs. In fact, the parents actually understand that the police only catch those that break laws and help those people that are victims of crime. However, it also instill the thoughts in their kids that whenever he do something bad he might be arrested and prevent them from doing so. A negative influence is just like a pollution. Negative influence will always create an artificial barriers to stop or hold someone back. When someone is condition over a period of time, it is hard for them to get out of their zone and it crippled them along the way. They start to be unwilling to try and attempt in the things they do.As we shape our destinies, we are the architects of whatever house we choose in which to live. Human beings are different from animal as they are more intelligent in making decisions on what they want to listen and what not to. As they stay in their existing position and not trying as they are afraid of failure, there will not be success. As extracted from the text, without friction, there is no heat. Man can either accept a mistake as a failure or as a lesson in progress. Man will forget to live if he did not make mistake. Risk always come with return, no failure and no chances to grow also. For a man to develop a positive thinking towards mistakes, he must see them as an opportunity in life. If a man didnt go out seeking his true potential and always let other lead his life, he will be handicapped. The way to react to failure is through curiosity. Mistake and failure are learning lesson, life is a life long learning journey. https://youtube/watch?v=Ydeyl0vXdP0
