In two recent sociological research surveys were conducted, the participants who were asked to assess the risk of various types of risks, including bad habits. The study showed that the participants were well aware of what habits are the most harmful, but it was not enough to motivate them to change their lifestyle. The results showed that, in fact, people are quite realistic about the dangers that are daily subjected to their health and life. For scientists is an important educational mission. Their task - to break through the wall of indifference and not be limited to the standard phrase "They all understood and now will change."

 Bad habits - second nature?

The requirements that contribute to bad habits

The need for public recognition and good old-fashioned sense of contradiction that makes challenging public morality - all this makes us cherish addictions. Ironically, bad habits create a sense of belonging to a community, which is very important for humans. We consider ourselves part of the social structure; why is it so difficult to change their behavior if it is not counteracted in society. For example, stress - a terrible thing, but we are almost boast stressful experiences How to beat stress? Create an oasis  How to beat stress? Create an oasis
   and wear it as a badge. Career, hard work, long working hours - all this promoted in society, and stress - just a logical extension of the value chain. It seems that the people working "only" 40 hours a week, do not inspire us with respect.

Also, many people do not like to listen to instructions on what to do and what not to do, so we tend to justify their actions and bad habits. In each of us lives a naughty child Naughty child: a guide to action  Naughty child: a guide to action
 . We continue to smoke, justifying this by saying that "If smoking has not yet brought me to the grave, then you can continue," or "Smoking helps me deal with stress or lose weight."

Not yet become apparent psychological causes of dangerous behavior, people do not give up their vices and shortcomings, no matter what they know about the dangers of habits. Researchers must talk to the people, which want to influence, and only then to give advice, they should listen to what really excites people, learn social norms and their influence on our actions. Each person individually and society as a whole - should rethink these rules and change them.

Logical-intuitive introvert - Analyst or Robespierre

August 29, 2013

 Logical-intuitive introvert
 Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung suggested to divide people into extroverts and introverts. For a more detailed description of the types of introverts and extroverts today divided into 16 personality types, which take into account not only the inherent features of a person's identity, but also the process of information exchange between man and the environment. Logical-intuitive introvert - a type of Analytics or Robespierre.

 Logical-intuitive introvert - Analyst or Robespierre

Strengths - the logic and intuition

Logical-iituitivny introvert - Analyst or Robespierre. All phenomena, he carefully analyzes using a scientific approach. The strength of this type - the logic and intuition. The analyst is constantly immersed in himself, in his own world where everything is categorized and logically linked to each other.

Analyst craves knowledge, it absorbs them into itself, exploring the world, builds the universe held together by his ideas. If something it lacks knowledge helps intuition and imagination. Keep focused and silent. Outside world takes an interest very early and it causes him a lot of reading in early childhood. Reading for him is not just entertainment, and cognition of the world.

Well at school, it is especially easy to give exact science, where everything is classified, laid out on shelves. Early starts to see in a small, private, general, and in the general public - the analysis of situations in life is given to him very easily. In the future, it will work successfully if the work is of interest to him. But it does not always happen, but if the analyst's job is not interesting, it works in a slipshod manner. Analysts make great programmers, accountants, engineers, math teachers, surgeons, managers.

It is freedom, I do not like anyone to invade his personal space - this allowed only selected those with whom he has a close contact. With such people can be friends for life. Love and affection long, often for life.

Despite the complete lack of interest in life, if necessary, it can provide your family a normal existence. But if someone will lift the burden from it, it will only be grateful. Unpretentious clothes, but understands its value to others, so you may dress tastefully, but without the frills - vivid detail, frills, crawfish - it is not for Analytics.

Having your own world, and nurturing their ideas, which are fanatically convinced. He says little, but if you affect the interests of its subject, can speak clearly, concisely and persuasively. I tend to convince others of his ideas - hence the second name of this type of people - Robespierre. The combination of stealth, the pursuit of justice, the belief in their ideas and wishes to pass them around often makes Analysts revolutionaries - Dzerzhinsky, Garibaldi.

 Logical-intuitive introvert - Analyst or Robespierre

Weaknesses - put their ideas into practice

Perfectly understanding in any situation, in theory, sorting out people and their characters, an analyst with difficulty communicating and implement their ideas. Especially a lot of trouble gives him companionship in his youth - he sees too well the shortcomings of others and can not hesitate to say so. With age, the analyst learns not to do it, but his silence and coldness of outer (even inaccessibility) do not attract people to him.

Knowing this, an analyst with youth accustom ourselves to ignore the opinions of others. He also prepares himself and to other possible privation - constantly tempered, limit yourself to food, and so on.

Helpless at home, can absolutely not interested in what he wears and eats - the need to delve into the life given to him hard. In such cases, he needs someone who could take care of it. But usually the person chooses Analytics himself and if he accepts it, you get a very strong and reliable alliance.

Not able to achieve their own, to defend their interests, does not have the penetration and often (but not always) does not believe that he is able to do something concrete. Indecisive, his actions are almost always delayed. All these qualities are often made of people of this type pessimists. But if the analyst at work and appreciate the work he likes, he can achieve great things. Can not stand that they were in command, quickly respond to a request or a soft persuasion than on the order and it is very often prevents promotion.

It gives your health and spiritual comfort of great importance. Hardening - it is also one of the ways to improve health. Peace of mind can be broken, if others do not understand him, and a negative attitude. In this case, an analyst may become suspicious.

Thus, the logical-intuitive introvert Introvert - not breaketh himself  Introvert - not breaketh himself
   - A person with analytical mind, the ability to understand people and situations. But he is hesitant, unsure of himself and does not know how to defend their interests.
