When it comes to high school there are numerous things one may get pressure to participate in. Whether it be sex, drugs, or even skipping these pressures nearly always originate from one's peers. Because of this the type of activity may vary depending upon what type of friends one obtains. Personally, my peers (the ones I am mostly associated with) pressure me positively. The things I am pushed to do, I consider encouragements rather than pressures.
My friends encourage me to succeed, better myself as a person, and positively impact others throughout the day. With that I am pushed towards growth, growth that will prepare me for things far after high school and even university. I am pushed to succeed, in which my peers denounce the lazy spells that have a tendency of creeping up in times of dissarray. They inform me about clubs or events they know will assist me with my career choice (ie. BPA- Business Professionals of America). I am assisted in mending my flaws, in which my #team will identify my actions -big or small- that may have offended or humiliated someone; afterward offering their "next time" advice. My close peers push each other to do a "deed of the day", where we reassure someone their inportance in life an to others.
Peer pressures come from one's peers. Whether that pressure is positive or negative does not depend upon an individual's peers, but rather that individual. Choosing your friends wisely come with numerouse benefits, for your friends influence your actions. Show me your friends...and i'll show you who you are.
Awww! Steph! Yes we do push you for the best unlike some people who would push you for the worst. Ignore all the negativity that's around you and push through it. And never go down to their level. #TheTeam

ReplyDeleteBROWWWWWWWWNIN' We love you. #team all day.
ReplyDeleteYes I like how you touched on the positive reinforcement of peer pressure and addressed the fact that because you are peer pressured doesn't mean you have to live with it. Make the people who aid you surround you. Nice blog
ReplyDeleteYou have nice friends! You just gave me a whole new perspective!
ReplyDeleteThat last sentence is true, but like you said it can be positive and if it's negative you have the choice to ignore it. Nice job! You're a great writer
ReplyDeleteI like the twist in peer pressure. I think people sometimes forget that pressure can be good. I truly can testify that you are an example of a teen that is positively pressure.
ReplyDeleteYou have good friends because you ARE a good friend!
