Today, due to the dynamism that characterizes the daily routine of most people, especially in large cities, it is very common to note that many people act with indifference to situations faced by friends, family, co-workers, among others; those who justify or seek to explain this, lack of time, multiple responsibilities or even their multiple occupations. This case is an obvious example of apathy.
However, those who stand in solidarity and support those who face or go through a situation, placing themselves in that person's position and even understanding the causes and consequences of what happens, show a clear example of empathy in the human being.
These two scenarios show us both sides of the faces of the coin, something that many of us have probably faced in our work, circles of friendships, family and also on social networks, even within the blockchain.
Below are a number of the simplest features of an Empathetic person:
1. Introverted and very sensitive, they are very detached people, excellent listeners and willing to help in all that they can, they can feel wounded very easily in the indifferent attitude of other people.
2. Highly intuitive, a very common feature in empathetic people, allowing you to try to surround yourself with people with positive minds.
3. Avoid falling in love so they don't get hurt or take advantage of them.
4. They are par excellence nature lovers, they enjoy it a lot using it to recharge energy and relaxation.
5. Enjoy loneliness, use these moments to reflect and rethink new goals.
And in relation to the characteristics of apathetic people, we can mention:
1. Self-centered, self-immersed and see everything from their point of view, regardless of reasons or listening to motives, they are only interested in what they think.
2. They are Narcissists par excellence, mostly considered better than others and make their needs prevail over those of others.
3. Lack of tact to say things to others.
4. Extremely impatient.
5. Prejudiced and superficial.
6. They feel no remorse for the actions they do.
7. In order to get rid of any gesture of solidarity or support for a person who has a problem, they act violently and rudely.
As can be seen in the characteristics indicated above for both cases, the two sides of the coin are clearly demonstrated, as a reflection and guide, in order to facilitate the identification of both attitudes.
I hope that this publication will help you to identify those apathetic people in a timely manner and avoid confrontations that do not lead to any positive results.
Finally I present to you a thought of Rollo May:
