The influence of other people among of social group over you can actually be referred to as peer pressure. As we all can remember PEER PRESSURE is a constant word which we do hear almost everyday, more especially then in elementary school and it is often referred to as negative side or part of peers. However, after which we must have learnt and advanced we get to realize that peer pressure can either be positive or negative. Yes!! It all depends on the side of it you are seeing it or the topic you are speaking about. Just as everyone of us have become a victim of peer pressure, Even the introvert are also a victim of this. Anything a peers made you do individually or as a group that you didn't just choose to do it own your own is simply peer pressure, now if you can take I minutes back you will get to agree with me that everyone of us have become a victim of peer pressure, it must be in the Positivity matters or negative parts of it, whichever way Considering the topic on Hive learners week 153 edition 3 prompt I will be discussing about the positive effects of peer pressure.
In an institution where I found myself is one which you have to join a group for you to cover up on time, actually a serious one per say. In in medical Profession which an individual knowledge or perception is not enough, thereby you need colleagues contributions over a case. During our Year 1 my colleagues were forming a group reading and right from time I'm not a type that do with crowd but I had no other choice that to be on my own. However I was motivated by these groups and I told myself that I must cover up and be top notch as an individual with belonging to any reading group.. I had to go out of my way to make sure I stay up at nights to read while they read as well, after that very Year 1, I actually did well at least my results where UpTo what every student will appreciate as a score. After I noticed something that there are things which groups understood better and they stay longer while ready as group rather than individuals. So the next Year I had to form a reading Group.
This new academic Session that arrived, I and my newly formed reading partners started reading and studying I got to realize that there's actually a lot of advantage and the motivation to stay up is there, that was how I started reading with groups of individual that are my reading partners. At the end of the semesters my grade was far better than what I had before and same with my reading mates. I started this Group reading out of peer pressure and it turned out to be positive for me and my partners as well. This is how peer pressure can effect an individual positively. I'm not a fans of TDB (TILL DAY BREAK) I love my early morning reading and evening immediately it is 11pm I'm done reading at night even during Exams I found it difficult to read pass those hours, then when I meet the real pressure in my peers I was forced to adjust myself to read as long as I can remember.
The outcome of peer pressure depends on the kind of people or peers around you and as well the environment which you found yourself, peers has 70% possiblity to affect your behavior and way of Life, then it can be positive or negative.
