  • In my opinion, people could influence you through things which you are interested in. Inspiration could be defined as positive influence. We could be influenced, it depends how powerful that person is; it also depends on your self confidence.
  • AReality, I like your positive approach, it amazes me indeed. You took the infuencing something like it is there and we must accept that being influenced by good person is what we could be grateful for, or at least it made me that feeling, because I think, people also can lead us on the right path. Anyway, I am still thinking about what you wrote in the second and third paragraph. And I am glad you participate here! :)

  • I think that people with low self-esteem, self-confidence are easily to be influenced because they don't trust in themself, in their abilities. On the contrarery, people who aren't open-minded are also good victims that can be easily influenced. We are mostly influenced by environment, society we live in. Eventually everything depends on those who want to influence us, if they have knowledge, ability etc and if they are good manipulators..
  • I think so:

    Infuence in fact is the way by which man interact with environment. All people experience the strongest influence in early childhood when there are no own opinion, own character. But gradually the character becomes hard and environment less exerts influence on man. Year by year people become more constant in their habits and weeknesses, they becames less able to learn. But on the other hand, mature man cann't be lead astray so easy.
    But sometimes most of us may experience some unexpected, very strong influence, mind shift. It may be change of residence and lifestyle, catastrophe, war or maybe only one meet with a person.

    Sorry, if my speech contains mistakes. Please say about them in private, I will be very thankful.

    • Yeah, I heard we are the most influenced to our seventh year of life and it is usually parents and close family, plus kindergarten. And if we experience something bad to this early age, it can be reflected after years as a low confidence and after that, as Luci wrote below, we can be easily influenced by other people. :) So, parents could be vigilant and raise their childerns in proper way to make them mature with health wit. I like your comment and the way how you expressed it, is simply great. Thank you, Yokir. :)

  • Influence:

    This is a powerful, energetic and compelling impact a person produces upon the beholders that they are imbibed so much and idealsed that behaviour.

    Like some idealise a religious personality or a political leader.  

    Influence in a sense an aspect also works when someone feels falling in love.

    That's I can explain in brief.

    So far as me is concern I do not think that people are influenced by me easily.


    The video you have posted elaborates POWER OF IMAGINATION AND PERCEPTION rather than the topic influence.

  • There is a real big difference in what you see in yourself and what people see in you ......yeah if people they themselves can know what others think about them and see beautiful in them which they can't -sometimes ,so they can try to be be more better and develope more trust in themselves  and so yeah an inspiration can influence people ....... :) 

    Yess i have been influenced - By many people round the globe - some people are straight forward throwing their comments directly to me so it makes me think if it applies to me so then i try to fill my life with more goodness and positivity and yeah i've also influenced many people too :)

    Influencing - every coin has 2 sides so influencing also can be positive or negative depending on the motive of the person who is influencing you ..... it can make you more beautiful or can make you feel sad or can drive to you wrong path too .....but what i think is -we should beleive in oneself and Be positive towards everything you do and you'll automatically reflect what you're to the whole world :) 

    Thanks for publishing the nice video :)
