Guaranteed you are paying attention to someone or something, a person or a group. Have you thought much about this? Did you think through what they are saying, why they are saying it and what impact it is having on your life?
For example, if you follow sports closely, do you have a favourite team or player? What do they stand for or represent? Do they make you a better person? In whose eyes?
People usually think the people they follow are the best. This is true for sports teams, religions, political parties, authors, schools and even fishing clubs.
If you are interested in the greater good, for you and others, it may not matter as much who you follow as what positive influence you’re getting from it.
However, if you drop a notch and only want the greatest good for your group (not the population at large), then that is where division starts and troubles begin and it may even lead to conflict.
Groups and associations can be great. They are not all equally good. So be mindful about how much you rely on them being the only way with the correct information. You can get good information anywhere. Make sure you don’t fall for second tier info from a top tier source.
