“Group Minds”

I think the benefits of following the opinions and norms of the majority group is that you will fit in with them. For example, if you are new to a school and you do not have friends you are going to start acting or doing similar things as the other people are doing at school to fit in with them. When you start doingsimilar things you start fitting in and then you gain friends because you guys are doing the same things. So the benefits are that you wont be the outcast. you will fit in with them, but that doesn't necessarily will mean your happy. Following your own heart and doing what you choose to do benefits you because that's your decision that you want and that will make you happy. But then again your going against the people that govern your life and the consequences of that is that perhaps they'll get mad at you because you didn't obey or you didn't agree with them and you went against them. So the benefit of you following your heart is that you'll be happy and you wont have regrets later in life because you did what you wanted and you went in the direction your heart signaled you to.
