It is a challenge for me to write my ten days of personal journal because of my unique

problems and struggles in life, which hold me to putting myself in a box and doing nothing.
That's why I'm unable to write a daily update of my journal because I need more focus,
and I'm not interested in anything, even leaving my room. I will push myself to accomplish
this task even if it's hard. I'm pressured enough in my life routines that it affects my
personality.
One simple consideration that can change how people think about their approach to life is
the examination of the influences they have on other people's lives. An individual cou ld
also look outwards and analyze other people's impact on that individual's life. One should
also self-reflect and search for how their thoughts and actions craft a pathway toward their
destiny. The statement by Socrates, "the unexamined life is not worth living," is an exciting
statement requiring considerable analysis. I think it's essential first to examine the
circumstances of what was going on when Socrates stated, "the unexamined life is not
worth living." To get a sense of how critical the situation. If you have a life that other
people acknowledge, you have taken the full opportunity of living and impacted the society
in which you are a part. That impact could be viewed as positive or negative, but it still
leaves behind some form of an impression. There are many ways to look at how one could
impact society.
This could be possible by viewing how your society operates and seeing the purpose of that
livelihood. Many people follow the everyday routines of sociocultural norms and spend
their time doing something they have no personal interest in. This relates to Socrates
accepting death rather than imprisonment or exile, as there is no self-purpose to either of
those penalties. Socrates would be disappointed in some of today's generation for not
dedicating themselves to their aspirations. Humans today have lost a lot of the pioneer
aspect of their personalities. I believe that people early in age are raised on the concept that
their dreams are attainable and that they should strive for them. As people start to develop
into young adults, they are encouraged to.
The sociological imagination enables us to see how seemingly broader social conditions
influence personal aspects of our lives. An example would be unemployment, and if
someone loses their job, they might think that this is an emotional issue and that it is their
personal problem that they do not have a job. However, if we begin to look around,
millions of other workers just like him or her are also losing their job for the same reasons.
We might start to understand that our personal or private concern is a part of broader
social problems in our society. The sociological imagination lets us get out of our heads
regarding how we think about social issues. It will enable us to step in another person's
shoes, see things from their perspective and try as hard as we can to understand why that.
But some people accept their social world as something "natural." But the sociological
perspective enables us to see society as a temporary social product, created by human
beings and capable of being changed by them. Sociology also helps us understand ourselves
better.
