7.Summary
It is necessary for us to have a good social network. Because we are unconsciously influenced by others all the time. We unconsciously imitate the behavior of others, whether it is good or bad. We are also easily affected by the emotions of the people around us, and this effect can last for a long time. The most important thing is that once the member of our social network wants to give up, we will also quickly give in to temptation.Just like I want to lose weight, but my friends are eating sweets. I will give up my plan and choose candy quickly.
