Dual Discussion: Reputation and Public Opinion on the Balance - Should I Care About Them?

In our societies, reputation and what others say are among the most important drivers of behavior for the majority of individuals, and among the key deterrents preventing them from engaging in many actions—even if they personally believe in them. Individuals among us consider "what people think" to such an extent that it may surpass their consideration of themselves, ranging from daily behaviors to life-changing decisions. Many of us do not necessarily view this as negative, given that humans are inherently "social beings," and thus have little control over not caring about others' opinions of them. We will discuss this matter from entirely different angles, attempting to dive deep into the idea to broaden our perspectives and express our thoughts in a space free from judgment and labeling. Discussion Format: Each person will discuss the topic with another person for 9–10 minutes to hear more transparent and honest ideas, then switch to another person until six rounds are completed. Afterwards, we will move into groups of (3–4 people) to continue discussions on the same topic. ⏳ Time: Sunday, September 14, from 8:15 PM to 10:45 PM. We will remain available afterwards for casual conversation. 📍 Location: Coffee Planet 💰 Fee: Only 30 SAR Transfer via STC PAY to this number: 0556349749 ⚖️ Meeting Rules: ✔️ Discussion is open to all opinions with mutual respect for differing viewpoints ✔️ We focus our discussion on philosophy and life, avoiding religious and political issues ✔️ We kindly ask punctual attendance
