R.Verma Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 The luxuries and conveniences of contemporary life prevent people from developing into truly strong and independent individuals. Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position. Undoubtedly, the comforts and luxuries of life impede people from developing into truly strong and independent individuals, however,it is their character which shapes up his\her future. Therefore, an Individual can reach the acme even if he\she has profuse luxuries and comforts. The character of an Individual is judged by his\her upbringing: The morals and values taught by his\her elders. The better is his\her upbringing, the good is his\her character, no matter how opulent his\her life is. There are numerous wealthy personalities who have either excelled or deteriorated their legacies. For instance, on one side, we know Anil Ambani who inherited his father's( Dhirubhai Ambani) legacy( Reliance) positively and is now respected as the most potent business tycoon of India. One the other, we know Siddharth Mallya, son of Vijay Mallya( Owner of Kingfisher) , who is famous throughout the world for all the bad reasons. Hence, the mores and ethos of an Individual's life defines his\her path of life. Moreover, for the ones who know the importance of struggle for success, luxuries and conveniences, surprisingly, can optimize an Individual's performance and indeed , can assist him\her to succeed sooner and faster. For Instance, with the luxury and comfort of advanced technology, we can travel the whole world in just a day without any fatigue. Further, to ameliorate our work efficacy,we have hi-tech gadgets that can store our myriad data perennially and get us connected worldwide conveniently. All these comforts can save our time and optimize our performance without any physical discomfort. However, again it depends on an Individual, whether he\she utilizes them positively or the other way. Luxuries and comforts are, undeniably, a trap for many people who accidentally fell into it and are never able to come out of it. However, there are many who take this curse as a blessing and make a better and productive use of it. Thus, they are the visionaries who create a better world and act an Idle for those who are still trapped by their perception.
