Mastering the Art of Assimilation

The environment plays a crucial role in assimilating information, potentially exerting a long-term influence on our attitudes and behaviours. Our surroundings and the groups we associate with can shape our data reception. There is a risk of altering or losing individuality within specific settings or when aligned with certain groups.

Another important aspect is the environment, which also affects learning for individuals. Both physical and social environments can influence a person in both positive and negative ways. A positive environment can foster emotional and psychological well-being, whereas a hostile one may lead to stress and depression, affecting quality of life. Consequently, dynamics within groups, manipulation, and environmental factors can shape the perceptions, attitudes, and behaviours of people.

The BG5® system identifies four methods for information assimilation, each with its unique advantage. One way involves information assimilation through open and objective sharing of what has been learned, while another requires the involvement of others for effective assimilation. Suppose individuals are unaware or do not practice their specific method of assimilation. In that case, they might find themselves dissatisfied with the progress of others or frustrated by the varying speeds at which others work. Recognizing and applying the individual learning pattern is essential to maximizing the benefits of the natural learning process. Therefore, effectively digesting information is critical to success.

Do you know your preferred learning method and how you acquire information? Probably not. However, you might appreciate discovering it.

Gustave Le Bon in his book "The Psychology of the Crowd" asserts that crowds process information without critical judgement and are easily swayed. Concurrently, their actions become more emotionally charged and unpredictable. Thus, the pertinent question arises: why does this phenomenon occur?

It revolves around absorbing information. Individuals within a crowd may be inclined to accept diverse points of view or even make decisions that would be utterly unacceptable to them individually. This phenomenon can occur because, as Gustave Le Bon suggests, a person may lose their capacity for critical thinking within a crowd, which is directly related to information assimilation. Consequently, an individual's perception could become distorted or lost during the transition to a mass state, influencing how they perceive and assimilate information.
