The Powers Of Influence & Peers (2)

PEERSHIP

My own is my peer, the person I share a certain level with. That person, who for either this reason or that shares a commonality with me; reasons which could be as classmates, colleagues, associates or contemporaries. Whatever that brings us together and makes us willing to share views and correlate is reasonable enough to make us peers.

People, with time and close contact/association, develop relationship that improves gradually just as the closeness lingers with time. Peers, also like influence is an element defined by Time & Contact. But in peers is influence very remarkably expressed.

Influence & Peer

Most times, we see the connection between influence and peer. The association that peership brings creates an appropriate avenue for influence to play out. People often do things that people of their level, their peers do. It's a heavy likelihood that one wonders whether this is a craziness.

Peers as their closeness suggests have this comfort, this coolness that what their mates do should be okay for them too. They want to be like each other, dress like each other, and do almost every similar things.

Whether it is a good influence or a negative one, peers somehow manipulate the thinking of their fellows. And whether overt or covert, one of the major feelings of association is an exchange of worldview.
