Have you ever found yourself in a group whereby one person’s
negativity affected everyone in the group?
Today we go behind the scenes at this website.
Long story short – one bad apple is just one bad apple. But
the insidious part of it is dear readers, are the PEOPLE WHO ARE KEEN TO SPREAD
THE NEWS ON THE OTHER APPLES (and labelling them just as rotten).
Poor innocent apples.
The research shows the positive mindset makes a difference – we
are all discerning readers and thinkers (foreign friends always say that Singaporeans
they meet have a good head on their shoulders!). Are we so easily misled by the
one bad Grassroots leader or one errant volunteer?
I think not. I think we owe it to the nameless auntie who
cleans the vegetable garden at the community plot near my HDB block and the
toothless uncle at the CC who always helped me with the badminton courts.
Let us all be a bit more discerning and positive.
Oops… Found out that the “toothless” uncle had forgotten his
dentures for that day, so he is technically not toothless, my apologies. :)
