The Existential Stimulus Struggle . by philoedu(m): 12:25pm On Apr 07, 2023
When it seems we have got to a stage where we can easily feel and afford to sit back and take a rest, we discover we could not just do it for various existential reasons. On the contrary, we find that we are often being forced to pursue what come to be known as the life stimulus struggle, aware of or not. The reason is not always far fetch, due to the fact that most times, we are always up for a new idea and a new pursuit as we tend consistently and constantly, either moving too far in one direction or not far enough of which the prevalent end result is often a complete confusion of the state of mind.
In the process, as it were, we may come to be over stimulated and reactive as to gear up to engage in one type of activities or the other, positive or negative as the case maybe. In this context, one could revert to one painful extreme to the other as to indulge in one profitable action that may eventually bring one to a point of more optimum stimulation of activity. The same is true, that in the other side of the spectrum, are those who may get themselves indulge even in the unprofitable platform with the negative stimulation as to get even more committed to the unexpected ugly side of event. In spite of what looks like a pendulum like swinging of event, there are still those who may be able to maintain a steady center cause just like those who may not be able, as to instead find themselves in a swinging back and forth on either side of the pendulum for no fault of theirs and without a tangible result.

This reality can be deduced from any individual psychology, through which any one can be assisted through a process of adjustment as to come to term with this individual reality. It is also true that taking for instance, an individual from the country side, who have been living in a quite environment and a peaceful atmosphere; of cause, such individual may, no doubt, come to develop the habit of tolerance, for a low-level life of activities over time. On the opposite end, may be an individual from down town busy metropolis, and when thrust suddenly into a quiet and peaceful countryside with low level life of activities, will definitely and quickly find it boring and irritating to the extent that it could even be unbearable and verse versa with the individual from the countryside.

In other to contend with this state of affair adequately to the balancing principle of the stimulus struggle, it is imperative and profitable for such provision of adjustment, a kind of movement or routine activity that act as a stimulation or dissimulator as the case maybe. It is interesting to observe, however that often we seem very much less sympathetic and hostile toward those who find it difficult to adjust to low level of activity depending on which side of the divide we may find convenience to our level. The same is true that, often, a bored individual can sometimes irritate us, then overburden and harassed individual, of which the question is what could be responsible for such judgment, if not psychological.

There are contingent answers as it were, for such question, of which the more prominent in psychological term is due to lack of effective tackling of the stimulus struggle components that reside our disposal which are not adequately paid attention to in our day to day leaving. Sometimes, the manifestation of any negative judgmental attitude, of any two individuals is often, the result of a failure from the stand point of objectivity from both end of the spectrum.
And from their inability to effectively make use of the stimulus struggle concept from the objective point of view. The consequence of this, is often an irritation, intolerance and bad tempered of the individual concerned in the process. It is true that we are often prone to be sympathetic and forgiven towards the over-labor individual than those who are not. The reason for this could be as a result of not pushing the level a bit high enough to show that our culture is advancing. It will be observed that when we perceive the urge of stimulus struggle in a more balance direction, we become exploratory in our moment of introspection and the tendency to provide variation will not be lacking but immediate. The result of this is often obvious, when some level of attention is paid, in the exposition of the individual concerned in an exciting mood with objectivity. This is true, when in particular, an adequate intrinsic adjustment is adhered to at its high level, at any particular point in time in any environment.

It must be observed that the exploratory innovator type of individuals, as often come to be called, are not always happy due to their tendency to have to suffer a great deal of some psychological prototype. The psychological prototype relative to the environmental pressure coupled with the driving force of the like of impatient to conceive of any imaginary events. In the process, this could also result to the very consequence that may lead to a crisis of mental imbalance and disorientation due to mental overload, as it often come to called.

We must bear in mind that the aim and objective of the stimulus struggle, is self-evidence, even though, it may not appear an immediate progress with great achievement obtained, but an individual concerned will always experience an easy and disconnected and balanced environment. The same is true, that any sacrifice made toward this direction, will always manifest some form of especial tolerance and empathy with a unique sensibility towards the environment and everything else.

It is also true that this is not without adequate response toward any kind of frequent moody and incomprehensible wayward like behavior that is prevalent in any immediate environment. Sometimes, it is intuitively recognizable, that the inevitable outcome of unbalance stimulus in which most individual find themselves often have to due to this adverse effect.

It is interesting to emphases, however, that the adult stimulus struggle is very similar to that of the child’s play of which the parents often have the obligation to take care of any such problem. During the process, there is always a great deal of left-over energy to be dissipated toward positive direction or the very opposite. Through these playful activities of any child, is the accumulated energy to be dissipated in pursuit of the stimulus struggle. On the adult, the same energy often come to be dissipated through the various avenue employed in pursuit of the stimulus struggle of which most prevalent is the act of invention of new pattern of behavior. In any growing child, for instance, in playing activity, is such that every single move of their action performed, is often geared toward an unlimited invention and excitement. Evidently, this becomes a voyage of discovery of self, in his ability and capacity to explore the world around him.
It is interesting to emphasize that due to the level of reasoning, the inventiveness and exploratory act of the stimulus struggle may not be the specific objective of the growing child. But it remains the predominant feature and often the most valuable extraction from any playful activity of any growing child in this process.

It must also be emphasized that, if history has anything to offer, it is this positive aspect of the stimulus struggle which led to what happened, of which we were told, this sense of stimulus sounded through Europe like the blast of an archangel’s trumpet of which, history has it, that from king to ordinary peasant, that there arose an enthusiasm for knowledge as never before.
It was this spirit of the stimulus struggle that led to what many come to be known as the discovery of some manuscripts of age past that later become the very subject of embassy and according to history, it was what led even Dante of Italy to imagine himself a humble follower of Virgil and Ariosto of Homer. It is this same irrefutable compelling spirit of the stimulus struggle that made Erasmus, we were told, to read even in the moonlight, just because he could not afford even a torch or candle and had to beg for a penny, not for the love of charity, but for the love of learning and acquiring knowledge to balance this element of the stimulus struggle that arouse in him.
