Undergraduate / GRE It is more harmful to compromise one's own beliefs than to adhere to them. [4]
Hi! I am back. Sorry for my slow draft #2 I've been having a lot of works. I have taken your suggestion and write it down. Thank you so much!!!
In the society, people make their own stands by having their own actions and belief. The consequences of such beliefs can sometimes comeback and hurt oneself, or might even change the course of history. However, you can be sure that by sticking to one's beliefs will be more harmful rather than compromising them.
First, Immutable belief might cause troubles. We are now living in vibrant society - a place where every person has his/her own idea or belief. By coming together in one place, adaptation is needed; ideas have to be compromised, and beliefs have to be altered. Not changing your beliefs might suggest that you aren't belong in this society and might be difficult for you to survive in some situation. For instance, in some cultures, people believe that eating beef is a disrespect to their god. So, if you go eat beef product at the place, you could get banned from people or kicked out from that society.
In addition, by adhering to beliefs, you miss the chances to take in new knowledge, tradition and culture because you are not willing to adapt to new society. This can also happen in another situation such as going to new school but not willing to make friend with persons who have different thoughts; or working in a new company but not willing to take any suggestions from senior employee. This type of thought can hurt yourself in the long run because eventually, you will not move forward and stuck with same amount of knowledge that you have.
On the other hand, changes bring opportunities. Compromising your idea or behavior a bit doesn't really hurt. It shows that you are adaptable to the situation and willing to learn new things. People are willing to tell you about their culture and tradition such as why they don't eat beef or what does this mean to them. This leads you to a new place which you have never experienced before because you cross you own line to the new side of the ideas.
Not to mention the fact that changing belief can sometimes bring the change to human lives. Mankind, for instance, once wish that they could fly like a bird; however, they never believe that they could do it. Not until 1900s, when Wright brothers challenge the world's belief and built the first airplane; their action is still now affecting us in a lot of ways like travels, goods transportation or even flying out to space. They changed their belief and made history to the flying industries around the world.
To conclude, believing without changing can turn out to be disadvantageous in many ways. Compromising, however, bring about new chances and new understanding of things. Some can even make historic changes to the world.
