Overwhelmingly influenced by developing of society and media, the author asserts that people's behavior is largely determined by outward forces instead of their own making. In my point of view, I am inclined to support the idea that the outward forces have much great impact on human's choices, making a plan completely irrelevant from others become harder now, which can be substantiated by the following discussions.

The first argument that can be presented to develop my position is that  various values, hobbies, social consensuses, conventions and fashions, all these factors influence us deeply. A good example may be found in the case that during the Africa era, from 1906 to 1910. When Picasso painted from life in Africa, he was influenced by the natural statuary of Africa, which encourage artists to face the most reality. Thus, Picasso pushed his paintings into the origin of art, embodying natural style to impress people. Under this circumstance, it is obvious that natural style inspiration of Picasso largely determined by the distinctive natural statuary of Africa.  

In addition, there is another reason for me to choose this statement. The reason is not far to seek in our life. To illustrate, let us consider various of responsibilities of us. Such as, teachers have the responsibility to teach well in every class, moving some negative emotion away from themselves during the work transitory. Employees have the responsibility to finish their tasks on time, improving the feat of their company. Hence, the responsibilities defined by social consensuses influence human's behavior greatly. If there is no such responsibilities, our society will become turmoil, lacking ethics and morals, the speed of developing will slow down.


Admittedly ,it may be true that some decisions can be made without accept other's idea.  For instance, the Microsoft Corporation has been a source of wonder for ages, however, when Bill Gates tore away Harvard university, he geared much stress from his teachers and friends. After weighed up the pros and cons, Bill made his choice without accept others' opinion and established the Microsoft Corporation, changing people's life widely. However, with the advanced media, interactions among people become more high-frequent than former, as a result, making a decision without accept others' idea become more difficult now.

In summary, due to the aforementioned reasons, I may safely come to the conclusion that the outward forces largely influence people's behavior.
