Events, Experiences And Perspectives
Events and memories shape how we see the world. They dictate how we react to things. But here’s thing with events and experiences
No two people go through the ‘same’ experience even when they’re part of the same event.
A promotion at workplace could be life changing for your family. A moment of pride for a friend. A competing benchmark for a colleague. Envy for someone just joining the team.
The event is singular- A promotion for you. But how people experience/react to this event varies on where you’re in the spectrum.
The same event could mean different things to different people.
How we react to situations is dependant on what the situation means to us, and how close we’re to the actual event.
