Think as an Individual and don't Follow the Crowd

It is said that "Everyone is doing it and it is therefore right", up to date, or whatever other justification the person saying it wants to bring forth. But it is better to think as an individual and not follow the crowd.

But by the time "Everyone is doing it" those who initiated it have moved on the the "latest thing" leaving those at the end of the trend following, not what is new, but what has been discarded.

No, think as an individual refuse to follow the crowd, step out yourself and set a new trend, or rather, do what has been proved to be best and has stood the test of time.

Experiments have been done and have proved that if enough people do something, no matter what it is others will join in. For instance when people are told that everyone is taking drugs they are more likely to do the same than if they are told that it is harmful, but that more people don't than do.

This doesn't mean that everything new has to be rejected. No! What it means is tha everything is tested and only what is good is accepted.

Equally just because it is natural doesn't mean it is good for you, one only has to think of the many poisonous substances, such as toadstools, in nature.

Those who advocate doing things because everyone is doing it and take their own advice join something for just this reason, not because they believe that it is a good thing to do. This is true of the Organic Movement, with both individuals and supermarkets getting in on it, only to give up because, they say, it is too expensive. It is if you buy from supermarkets, who frequently source their goods from abroad.
