The Truth About Passive Student
Misperception of passive students
How sad! Most people in Indonesia are born into a mock generation. If you see carefully, the stress level of teenagers in Indonesia is very high compared to other age levels. Just around us, surely we can find our friends who are stressed. Whether it’s because of college assignments, economic demands, or the influence of their social life. But all of that looks vague because many of them are good at covering up their feelings.
Humans are said to be social creatures. It’s true, in practice we need each other. But because we are interdependent, other people also have a great influence on us. That is what happened in Indonesia. The lack of awareness of mental health and the size of one’s tendency to bring down one’s mentality are social problems in Indonesia.
Usually, the method that is often used to knock someone down is to curse or mock. Often the mockery is directed at someone who is different and is done by someone or group who feels superior. Examples of cases that often occur are ridicule for a passive student. Surely those of you who are in college or already familiar with hearing the name of the passive student.
When a person becomes a student, he must have the stigma of having a free life. He wants to be free to do activities for himself without having to follow the “flow” of their environment. Usually, the activity at issue is a get-together with friends, hobbies and hobbies, organizations, and others. Indeed it is not wrong and tends to be the right thing. By doing things as you like, you can fulfill your inner satisfaction. Inner satisfaction can be linked to influencing your mood and pleasure. This often happens to students who have different interests and students who have introverted personalities.
Well, maybe what a passive student does like that. In their eyes, the things they do are right and benefit themselves. But maybe the path they are taking is something that is not common or contrary to what is done by groups who feel superior. The activity can also be done individually, so this student does not do it with others. So it can be done at home, so it is considered by his classmates to go home from college.
That was not a wrong thing after all the proof did not harm others. In my opinion, what needs to be addressed here is a person or group who considers himself superior and often berates. Their actions and speech can bring down a person’s mental health and can affect his life. Just like that, they have harmed others, in contrast to the passive student.
How to Fix A Superior Student
What this superior student must do is, self-introspection and learning to be able to respect the choices of others. Introspection is done to make people aware that the action taken is wrong. Maybe the energy expended to mock others can be used for something useful. After waking up, you try to change your perspective from the person being ridiculed. You like it or not if treated like that. Respecting other people’s choices is something to do after self-examination. Moreover, we live in a modern era which means we are not colonized by anyone and allowed to do anything. In law, Pancasila is also clearly regulated and written.
Invaders just don’t dare now, do you dare to colonize your friends?
Passive Student Must To Do
For my friends who got the title “Passive Student”, it’s fin. Scorn is coming, don’t take it to heart. As the saying goes “Dogs barking, caravans pass”. Be aware that your friends may not be aware and have not yet developed into a more mature person. Maybe their lives just went along and don’t know which direction to develop. And you don’t have the responsibility to please them. There have been many self-improvement books that teach us not to bother with ridicule and stay focused on moving in the direction we want. Like in the book The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A Fu*k written by Mark Manson. You can read the short review here.
For that, strengthen yourself facing a greater challenge, like a building, the higher the building, the higher the wind that hits. So keep on developing with what you believe and strengthen yourself because the challenges going forward are not getting weaker but getting stronger.
