SATORU GOJO e a ciência da CONFIANÇA | PSICOLOGIA JUJUTSU KAISEN

I'm Rafael, Psychologist and today's character is exactly the same age as me. Today is Satoru Gojo day. It has anime spoilers!

don't have the manga. This thing always rhymes, right Jujutsu is that very nice anime to watch And it seems that each character there, deals with a very explicit issue. Being of duty, surrender to instincts, emotions on the surface, indifference.

And the first character to appear here on the channel, has as its main feature: Imagine you are the most powerful person on the face of the earth There is no one who can beat you, which would imply a certain "Omnipotence". How would you react to that? who would you be?

If you had all this power from birth, that the character of today has you would be someone else. But if in a sleight of hand, you had this power, how much would you change? This character reflects, how much we like confident people who pass security, and at the same time transmit a very high charisma.

And this character actually fulfills all the requirements of what it's like to have According to Professor of Psychology Ronaldo Riggio He brings in his book "The Charisma Quotient" three main ingredients, which have in this characteristic that everyone admires even without realizing it. And that Gojo has plenty of it No wonder we see many videos, articles, books talking about how to have charisma And observing Gojo's behavior gives us a clue about that. Which would be the ability to adjust your behavior according to the environment you are in.

Gojo is kind of a chameleon in that depending on the environment he changes his behavior, so he gets what he wants. he has some attitudes that we can call "immature" with his students to kind of fit that situation but we all know he is a mature person as he cherishes their lives a lot, and has a higher purpose that surpasses even him same. a purpose for the future, a purpose for the whole society of sorcerers which would be the ease of starting conversations spontaneously Which is perhaps the most explicit feature in Gojo, he can talk to anyone You see him talking, and it's like he has 0% anxiety at that moment and last The ability to listen and unveil what the other is feeling makes his students respect him.

Not only them, but us who are watching it may be easier for him, after all, he has an extroversion, he is an extroverted person. He likes of having social contact, he likes to talk. And maybe this enormous ease of interacting with other people is due to that.

That's why he has a very interesting relationship with Itadori, another outgoing person. They're like those friends, who know each other in a day, and seem to have known each other for several years Definitely the best friendship in anime But he too get along well, with an introverted person like Megumi Actually, Megumi is in the middle of 3 extroverted people, Megumi I understand you. And that's why you are my favorite!

Charisma, extroversion and of course being practically a God in the world of Jujutsu make it easy for Gojo to have another great characteristic, which is its incredible, and really incredible He appears to fear nothing, and in almost any situation he has control. It's like he feels in control of everything. Remembering that "Confidence" is different from "Self-Esteem" While Self-Esteem is about being good about oneself Self-Confidence is about confidence in yourself, and your ability to handle challenges Solve problems and successfully engage in the world.

And Gojo is both! And this helps Gojo not suffer any kind of "Social Rejection". "Sociometer Theory", this theory talks about a psychological mechanism that helps us to minimize the probability of rejection.

When people maintain attitudes that are rejected by a group, by the group. They consequently tend to have lower Self-esteem. And when someone suffers from some degree of rejection, she tends to feel more sensitive to what others think of her.

That is, if you have more social skills as Satoru Gojo has will be a greater chance, you have a better social adjustment which will take you a better self-esteem It has a very close relationship with his students, and it is very interesting It always try to let them make their own decisions. Like he did when he left Megumi, he sort of decided what would be done with Itadori. What Gojo actually wants is to let the next generation be the He wants to change how the Jujutsu system is formed, he believes that system is quite flawed.

And with that he tries to pass on his values ​​to the students who will succeed him in the future. And his students trust him a lot, not just them, the image of tremendous confidence he conveys Can make a curse, an enemy of him like the Game, get close to him. She trusts he won't attack her right then.

It's a classic scene, showing how much this character is And all this is even more reflected in his body posture. His self-confidence and his charisma are reflected in the way he sits, the way he walks in the way he deals with other people. Always with an erect posture, and sitting in a very relaxed way, let's say.

Shy, withdrawn people generally do not sit, or do not stay in that posture, they tend to take up less space. His act of putting his hands in his pockets, in the midst of a hostile environment such as Jujutsu, shows a clear degree of arrogance, but above all of confidence as well. Social psychologist Amy Cudy argues that pretending to feel confident can actually make you more confident even if at the time, you're not feeling so confident.

the change in posture can lead to greater confidence, and a sense of power which probably makes Gojo feel even more powerful. It doesn't exactly work for everyone, Amy Cudy's studies have shown that modifying your body posture can affect your emotional state. Some other studies replicated this research, and were not that conclusive.

What can show that it doesn't fit everyone depends a lot on the context. Feeling powerful always has its downside, too, and that could be Gojo's biggest weakness. Professor of Psychology and Medical Genetics Gary Wenk, says in his book "The Brain" that young people are more prone to impulsiveness, thanks to not fully training the frontal lobes.

It's because they haven't completed the "Neuronal Myelination" process yet, think of myelination as if it were insulating the electrical wires in your home. Without myelination in the brain, electrical signals from neurons do not reach their destination. Gary Wenk that on average women at age 25, and men at age 30 complete this process.

In other words, Satoru may not have completed this process yet, and that may explain the fact that he is so exposed to danger. As we get older, we become more aware of our mortality. A very interesting book about this is "The good side of the bad side" which helps a lot for those who want to become more confident and understand more about their emotions and the importance of them.

Many people think that trust can be something "innate" to someone, that we cannot improve it. Either you are born with it, or you are born without it, but there is. Geneticist and Psychologist Robert Plomin did a study of genes, and their relationship to "trust" in twins.

And found that the genetic factor influences about 50% in a person's confidence factor. Which means that probably most other people in Satoru's family have confidence equal to him. But this means that it is not decisive, several factors influence it, but there is how you can improve it.

For example, I couldn't be an extrovert like him, that would run away from my introvert essence. But today I can handle it well, and at specific moments this introversion does not prevent me from doing what I want to do. This channel for example is proof of that.

When season two comes out I'll probably do another video about him, showing the "B" side of it all. After all, as he says: Enjoy subscribe and share, and remember, it's just the beginning. .
