Reading comprehension: how type VI personality jumps out of the trap of self-testimony prediction

I claim to be an atheist, so I don't believe what the fortune teller says. I can't understand how they can calculate the fate of others by their names or birth time.

But I still believe in the contents of scientific certification, such as behavioral judgments inferred by neurology, psychology and other related majors.

Some time ago, when I was chatting with a friend who was a trainer of "Nine Personality", out of curiosity about his major, I asked him to help me test my type. After a few minutes of communication and observation, he judged that I was a type 6 personality.

Bang bang, 80% of the above descriptions actually hit their real behavior. Naturally, I labeled myself with this personality. From now on, I will use this cautious personality to blame my procrastination, and I will make excuses for my mistakes from this personality. Continuous labels and psychological hints, I fell into the trap I dug, oh, no! I fell into the spell of self-witness prophecy.

So what is a self-fulfilling prophecy?

Self-testifying prophecy is a social psychological phenomenon put forward by American sociologist robert merton: the wrong definition of situation evokes a new behavior, which makes the original wrong concept come true (the wrong definition of situation leads to a new behavior, which makes the original wrong guess come true). "

Before things start, people will make preconceived judgments based on themselves or others. Whether this judgment is correct or not, this judgment will more or less affect people's behavior and make this judgment finally come true.

So how can we jump out of the trap of self-testifying prophecy?

Luo Pang quoted a sentence from teacher Wan Weigang in the 20 18 New Year's performance: "You have your plan, but the world has other plans."

The sixth kind of personality is cautious and suspicious. Before he decides to do something, he always wants to take the whole world into his own hands before he carries it out. But this world is a variable, even a subtle field will make people poor all their lives.

Romain rolland said: "There is only one true heroism in the world, and that is to love life after recognizing the truth of life." How does the sixth personality jump out of the trap of self-testimony Only through action can we constantly improve ourselves.
