20% Project

I'm back again, doing my 20% project. What's it on this year? Well it goes hand in hand with the topic I covered last year- Child Psychology. What I'm doing now is studying every human's instincts, logic, and emotions, and how the all connect under the topic of human behavior. So far, I have seen many interesting facts about how the brain processes something, uses your instincts and logic to react, and then displays emotion as it does all that. I think this goes even deeper into the profession that I would like to explore as I grow older- Psychology. It really breaks down the basis of our behavior and why we do everything the way we do. I will try to consult with the psychology teacher at my school. Many of the websites I may need may be blocked or I may have a hard time trying to find good information on these topics because they are not heavily researched. Either way, I think that my chat with the psychology teacher will help fill any holes in my research. Here's my video:

Chris Langan

Is Chris Langan Successful?

I personally don't think he is. He could have done better. Even though he didn't have the resources he needed, he was eventually recognized for being the smartest man in America, but he didn't seize some of the opportunities that and finally do something big. It's not that hes not successful, its just that hes not as successful as he could have been.

My personal definition of success is being happy where you are, living comfortably, and taking opportunities and chances as they are given to you. Chris Langan has all but one. He could have been bigger than just a silly game show and if he became bigger, more people would know who he is. Even though I have my own opinions about what he could have done, I think its good that he chose the modest life because he doesn't seem like the kind of person who wants all that fame and fortune.
