So i want you to take a second to think about, why are you here? when i say why are you here, i'm not necessarily asking why are you on this planet.
00:18
What purpose do you serve, that big existential crisis question of what does it all mean? i'm not asking that.
00:28
What i am asking is why are you in this class? what do you hope to get out of it? psychology is incredibly diverse.
00:43
No matter what we do in life, we're likely to interact with people and have to learn about human behavior.
00:53
If you're saying to yourself, well, i'm a psych major, obviously, why else wouldn't i be here? i would encourage you to go a little bit deeper.
01:08
Ask yourself some bigger questions of why is psychology interesting to me? what aspects of human behavior do i care about? what is it that i'm naturally drawn to? if you're not a psychology major, this question might be.
01:26
Be on the surface level a little bit more obvious, right? you might be thinking to yourself, well, i have to be here.
01:41
This is a requirement for me.
01:48
Most people don't really feel that super great or stoked about this.
01:52
In fact, for others, it can make them kind of angry.
01:55
But i would encourage you to know that psychology has a lot of really interesting things that probably have to do with your field...
