About teaching.
The tendency to get stuck or fixated on the person delivering the message rather than focusing on the message itself can be attributed to various psychological and social factors:
Authority and Trust: We tend to give more weight to information coming from authoritative figures or people we trust. If someone we respect or look up to conveys a message, we may be more inclined to believe it without critically examining the content.
Emotional Connection: Human beings are social creatures, and we often form emotional connections with others. If a person delivering a message appeals to our emotions or aligns with our values, we may become attached to them and their views, potentially overshadowing the importance of the actual message.
Personalization: When a message is delivered by a person, it is easy to personalize it and associate it with the individual's personality or characteristics. This can create a stronger attachment to the messenger rather than just the message they are conveying.
Social Identity and Group Affiliation: In group settings, we might adopt the beliefs of the group, including those presented by influential members or leaders. This can lead to a fixation on the messenger as a symbol of the group's values and identity.
Confirmation Bias: We are often more receptive to messages that confirm our existing beliefs and opinions. If the messenger aligns with our preconceived notions, we may give them more importance than objectively evaluating the content of the message.
Overcoming this tendency requires critical thinking, open-mindedness, and a willingness to evaluate information independently of its source. It's essential to focus on the content of the message, assess its validity, and consider different perspectives to form well-informed opinions. Recognizing our biases and being aware of our emotional responses to messengers can also help us stay focused on the substance of the message rather than getting stuck on the person conveying it. #teaching #moon #midjourney #ai #aiart #aiartist #art
