Are Your True Colors Revealed in Crisis?

"Do you think people will reveal their true self in times of crisis or should we consider deadly actions of shock, fear and panic?"

A friend asked today. There is a prover that reveals the true character of a person in difficult times. Did you purchase it?

Does the person show deeper virtue if it enters a difficult stage of life, experiences personal drama and crisis, shows abnormal calm and rationality?

Will this reveal a deeper level of instability if a person is acting in an unscrupulous and destructive manner in the face of emotional confusion? Or, depending on the circumstances, does situation response not represent a bigger role?

First of all, I think that in a critical period, the color in a positive sense will not be revealed. Therefore, my suspicion for Rudy Guiliani, a kind of peace of mind for the events of September 11, leads to broad leadership.

Secondly, I can not adjust myself during crisis and emotional turmoil and can not rely on the environment to defend against outdated movements ("Week This Week" or " I will get hurt. "). Again, I will not reveal any more realistic colors, but I will not ignore those colors.

Therefore, I think that this will give me a greater weight on behaviors I have taken in the crisis more clearly than any other action.

Wisdom requires vulnerability: Strong leaders need to show vulnerabilities. Through introspection, humility, and doubt, they simply become more humanitarian / vulnerable, not just answers. When real color appears, it's in the midst of crisis: People want to see (and participate in) leaders humanity

You will see the real color of the people you travel with. Nothing is as useful as traveling. When they feel stressed or overwhelmed, you often see the people's real color. Why do you think that thousands of people see "The Amazing Race" or "Survivor" every week? Of course, the latter itself is not a "travel" program, but the idea still exists. Pressure draws people's real color. This is a wonderful way to learn about someone and learn more about how people deal with situations and obstacles.

Considering the soap bubbles and the rainbow color of the oil film, some people think that the color "does not actually exist". This idea confuses the concept of pigment and the concept of color. The color we saw with the soap film was not due to pigment, but the color was visible. Color is caused by mixing of wavelengths that are visible to the eye as explained by the brain. Pigments function by selectively absorbing light of a particular wavelength while reflecting or transmitting other wavelengths. Thin film interference is another way to determine which wavelength of light will reach our eyes. If the color in the soap is "there is not there", you can say that the color in the rainbow does not exist. After all, there is no pigment in the rainbow.
