Sometimes it is difficult to express your opinion: you are afraid that they will not agree with you or understand. In this case, you begin to doubt your own rightness, you are subjected to pressure from the majority. In order not to be afraid to express your opinions, develop a certain tactic.
Together you are power. Try to find like-minded people who would share your point of view. Then the main mass is more likely to listen to the majority.
Forward, into battle! Try at least once in a big company to voice your point of view. First, listen to the opinion of the other members of the group, and then try to convey their own.
Argument. Find the arguments, learn to justify the argument and confirm it with facts. This is very important for you to listen to others.
The formation of the "I" child, of course, affects the parents. If he was strongly guarded, then in the future life it will be difficult for him to adapt socially, because he is accustomed to the fact that everyone decides for him. Such a person is not capable of making independent decisions, they are easy to manipulate. The ability to freely express one's opinion begins with the family. It is in communicating with parents that a child either expresses his opinion openly, or is forced to think a hundred times before saying anything, so as not to get another reproach. Rigid criticism of parents in the further adult life becomes a serious barrier for the manifestation and protection of one's own interests.
If a child grew up in a family, where everything was decided by his parents, he did not have to think independently, and he did not know how to learn how to express his opinion. His model of behavior will consist of certain stereotypes and clichés, which he laid. His thinking is inflexible, subordinated to a certain algorithm of behavior imposed in childhood.
Sometimes "your opinion" is a way to stand out. I have my own opinion on every aspect of life is just necessary. But you need to express it when you really do not agree with the majority, and not just to stand out from the crowd. When a person constantly goes against everything, this is a type of person - a nonconformist. He will always contradict even himself. It is better to always be true to yourself and preserve important and priority values, regardless of the opinion of the majority. In some cases it is better to remain silent, if at some point you feel that it is difficult for you to defend your position. Coming out of this situation, you can think over ways to realize your own desires. Defend your opinion is necessary in important, crucial for your life situations. In other cases, it is useful to listen to others, draw conclusions in favor of making their own decisions. Do not we want to merge too much with the "pack"? I think it's enough to go with her in one direction.
If you do not agree with the main mass and feel the strength to win over to your side the majority, boldly and openly express your opinion, so you will learn how to learn how to express your opinion. Express your opinion in order to simply express it - a sign of immaturity. If a person is intellectually developed enough, he will not go against the majority. He will first listen carefully to the arguments of others, and only then will express his opinion.
