Does it seem like people sound more negative these days? Here are 2 possible reasons why—and how you can influence others positively instead.
In complex social organizations, individuals continually influence one another. The question is whether the influence is positive or negative.
Two psychological principles, emotion reciprocity and negative reactivity, account for much of the divisions in our country. To positively influence people, tell a coherent story, based on what they already believe, rooted in their humane values and their hopes. It’s hard not to be negative about the current tone of public discourse. The drone of ill will in all forms of media seems ubiquitous in our times. I occasionally get disgusted with it and must remind myself that my negative reactions are just adding another cry of blame and whimper of powerlessness to the dissonance.
All social animals continually influence one another. Living in the most complex social organization, we humans influence each other unconsciously, inadvertently, and intentionally. It’s difficultto influence those with whom we interact. The only question is whether the influence is positive — for the well-being of all parties — or negative, that is, dismissing, devaluing, threatening, or hurtful., I wrote that the easiest thing in the world to do is influence people negatively.
