There are a few things you may want to know if you do not know so already. In dealing with the function of rationality, it is important to realize that every individual has their own behavior and way of thinking that they believe to be rational. Some people make endeavors to exceed these rational boundaries that they have created for themselves and some decide to remain within their own set environment of rational behavior. The process of determining rationalities is essentially based on ones bringing up and early education. Of course, some people are raised in hectic and violent homes and upbringings while others are brought up with all of the proper manners and tools to succeed as well as a steady family setting. Contrary to common belief, this is not always a reason for having faulty or very different rationality. Some people are just born to think differently than others. There are others that follow the crowd quite closely and make an effort to do the things that every normal person should do.
Individuality is the key to further learning and success. Meaningful lectures, stacks of books about the way people think and feel, and all the credit hours in the world do not mean anything in the long run for the closed minded conformist of the educational institutions around the world. Individuality is a very loosely used term currently. Absolute Individuality could be described as a person of pure intellect, someone with a completely opened mind, someone who acts on what they believe and nothing more or less than that, someone who thinks for themselves based on the knowledge they have acquired, and someone who is inexplicably full of unprecedented truth and wisdom. Above all else, absolute individuality is unobtainable.
Thinking rationally, you may wonder what good is having the idea of absolute individuality if it can never be reached. Striving for something that conflicts against rational thinking is not always bad. In fact there was a man who thought very irrationally and accomplished what may have never been accomplished by anyone else and has changed the world as we know it forever.
Although ration is constructed around a parade of terms and conditions, we may think freely whenever we like and make most anything rational in our own minds. Most would say that ration is often destroyed and rebuilt over time as we grow in age and maturity. Other may say that our ration remains the same our entire lives. Either way, ration is broken every so often and everyone does things that are irrational. Some irrational behavior comes as a direct effect of substance abuse. Some irrational behavior can be provoked by condensed emotional stress. Whether the case be too much to drink that night or you are just plain feeling blue, irrational behavior without any restrictions whatsoever should be avoided whenever possible. One irrational choice will always lead to another. Me personally, I plan to seek absolute individuality even though I realize it is a direct interference with everything I believe to be rational.
In dealing with ration, people comply to their ration most often. In return, their ration on that particular situation or thought becomes a stronger rational belief. As irrational behavior is expelled, the once held irrational beliefs are slowly transformed into rational thoughts or beliefs and we become more likely to indulge in them again merely because they are now grounds for our rational minds to explore. Deal with irrational behavior responsibly. Some morals and rationalities are meant to be bent and broken, while other are best left forbidden.
“The most important human endeavor is the striving for morality in our actions. Our inner balance and even our very existence depend on it. Only morality in our actions can give beauty and dignity to life.” -Albert Einstein-
