Question

Do you always do what is expected of you even when it conflicts with your personal beliefs? Give examples.

Answer 1

I am expected to do what is right and be responsible of my decisions.  

Sometimes, in making a decision that conflicts with my beliefs, I have to think first about the situation. I ask myself, “why is this in conflict with my beliefs?” I need to act in a mature way and understand that every decision I make create consequences.

So, the best way for me to make decisions in these situations is this. Before making a decision I have to consider what the consequences are going to be. If my decision implies lying to mom and dad, I won’t make it. If it means that I need to hide in order to not to be revealed, I won’t make it.

That is th best way to do what is expected even if ir conflicts with my personal beliefs.
