ChrissyParticipantOur daily lives are subtly and subconsciously impacted by the “psychosocial effects of our culture”, which can cause us to underestimate the influence our surroundings have on our attitudes and actions. Beneath awareness, our ego-driven mindset can trick us into believing the decisions we make are independent, which can make fostering constructive social relationships difficult.

ChrissyParticipantHumans are naturally wired for connection with others, and building positive relationships is essential for our happiness, health, and emotional well-being. It’s important to cultivate and nurture our bonds to find fulfilment in our lives and create a harmonious, joyful society. This can be achieved by shifting our mindset and educating about the significance of our shared humanity, focusing on the common good rather than just our own self-interest. By valuing each other for what we contribute beyond financial success, everyone develops a sense of collective responsibility. Recognising the interconnectedness of all people can enhance everyone’s quality of life by prioritising the needs of others, we improve our collective well-being and enhance our spiritual journey.
ChrissyParticipantCooperative learning generates the best results in a supportive group setting, since interpersonal relationships can significantly influence motivation, achievement, enjoyment, and overall success. Without providing a specific percentage breakdown of the forms of learning, I believe that the ideal learning environment is one that prioritises collaboration as its foundation, supported by individualism, and energized by a little healthy degree of competition in order to maintain a functional balance for a successful learning environment.

ChrissyParticipantI think that being ignored can be as detrimental as having the work destroyed in front of you. Recognition matters. A lack of recognition of a person’s efforts can lead to demotivation in contrast to those who receive even the slightest acknowledgment for their efforts.
