Dual Discussion: Reputation and Public Opinion on the Balance, Should I Even Care?

In our societies, reputation and what others say are among the most important drivers of behavior for the majority of individuals, and among the primary deterrents preventing them from engaging in many actions—even if they are personally convinced of them. Here, individuals often consider "what people think" to a degree that may exceed 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 therefore, it's not entirely within their control to disregard others' opinions about themselves. We will discuss this matter from entirely different perspectives, attempting to delve deep into the idea, broadening our understanding and expressing our thoughts in a space free from judgment and labeling. Discussion Format: Each person will discuss the topic with another individual for 9-10 minutes to hear more transparent and honest ideas, then move on to another person until six rounds are completed. Afterwards, we will form small groups (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 informal 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 ✔️ Please arrive on time
