Wholesome Guide to Misbehaving


According to the article the “Wholesome Guide to Misbehaving” when people puts limitations on their lives and behaviors they are limiting their full potential.

Yet when people test or step outside their set boundaries they not only get a taste of another lifestyle but they find that this lifestyle of misbehaving isn’t meant for the long term. Even though misbehaving gives a boost of mood, creativity and stress relief, it is usually the downfalls of misbehaving that makes people more often then not choose alternatives to a less limited, mishbehaved lifestyle.

I think that it is better for a person to live by boundaries than to live free of boundaries. I think that to go outside the norms and to misbehave is dangerous. It will get you in trouble with society and only make things worse for you in the long run.

Although misbehaving may supposedly give you a mood boost, it is important to remember that you will eventually come down from that temporary high and you will be forced to confront the consequences.

By nature, I am a cautious person. I like things to be planned and predictable and as some might say, boring. However, I enjoy this because I can predict things and bend them to fit my comfort. By testing those boundaries, I am breaking those rules, allowing anything to happen. I do not particullarly enjoy that.

Yhus, in order to benefit yourself and society as a whole, I would recommend it is better for a person to live by boundries than to live free of boundaries. It is just more safe. As they say, it is better to be safe than sorry.

I believe that we need boundaries in the world to make things function. Without rules or boundaries things would be out of control. People would have too much freedom to do whatever they want. This would include violent and dangerous things. The only way the world can function properly is with rules and order. They are there for our own protection.

I think it is better to live your life with some boundries but not a whole lot because if you set a lot for yourself then you will miss out on life and enjoy the things you want to do and the things that you are doing.Also because you need some structure in order to make sure that your life isnt complete madness but you also dont want to have to much structure that it runs your ife.

I feel that a person shouldn't live with boundaries even though there will always be boundaries in this world. But i feel that when people want to step outside of their boundaries they will do it in a more appropriate time then doing it in a formal setting. People want to be crazy and usually will do that in a setting that will accept it more than another setting because mostly the person doesn't want to look like an idiot.

I feel that depending on the boundaries, sometimes it is necessary to step out of them. However, if we never lived by our boundaries, we would have no control over ourselves and others. To have order and law in a society, there must be boundaries, otherwise rules are broken and everyone misbehaves. It is important to keep our boundaries and not often step out of line, because when we do, we tend to think of ourselves first and others later. Boundaries help to keep us guided and remind us of the consequences when we overstep them.

Everyone needs boundaries in life or else it'll probably turn into some sort of chaos. I would love to live without rules or limitations but just imagine society letting anyone do anything they wished without punishments or consequences? The world can turn into a scary, unprotected place especially for younger kids. Your behavior is very important to control and it describes what kind of person you are, some are timid while others don't care about boundaries and live life crazy.

I think everyone needs boundaries in life. You should limit yourself from different situations and problems throughout life. Without boundaries you are free to do anything. Boundaries allow life to go smoother by protecting your safety, your friends/family and life. By having boundaries this also reflects your behavior. Your behavior is cautious and you are concerned about how your life should go.

I think that boundaries help people knowing where their potential could be initially set. Having no guidelines usually keep people in the dark with what they should be doing. Boundaries also help us with a basic idea of what's acceptable in society and what's not (simple things, such as table manners, job interviews etc.,...). Having boundaries broken makes events even more thrilling and bring us to our potential, but once those boundaries are broken, new ones are made right afterword to accommodate those changes. Our lives are basically filled with boundaries, and we're doing just fine with them.

I think that it is important to live a life with boundries and at times, live with no boundaries, because it is always good to take a little risk at times, as long as your not hurting yourself or others. It's good to have that adrenaline rush. It is actually healthy for you. A person that lives with just boundraies will never know what excites them.
