Essay on the topic “The person you want to be like”
Such essays used to be often written at school. Less often now.
I wonder who your ancient Russian peers wanted to be like? Who was their example? We don't know this. But we know who must was to become an example for them, an ideal hero. Works describing the ideal hero were called hagiographies or hagiographies. Lives - biographies of the righteous who have achieved spiritual perfection and canonized by the Church as saints. At first, the lives of saints legitimized by the Greek (Byzantine) church were distributed in Ancient Rus'. But then, when the Russian Orthodox Church strengthened, she began to create her own, purely Russian list of saints, canonize (canonize) compatriots who were famous for their righteous life, firmness in faith, love for neighbor, and patriotism. These writings were intended not only for clergy, but also for ordinary people.
Usually the lives were built according to the canon - that is, according to a certain plan. The author of the life began with an apology: “Forgive me, good people,” he said, “that I, so unworthy, sinful and stupid, undertook to describe to you the life of such a great man. You should rip my hands off!” But then he calmed down and moved on to the story. The plan was something like this: family - birth and childhood of the future saint - craving for the church and righteous life - entering a monastery - spiritual exploits and miracles - death - posthumous proof of holiness. The saint's parents were righteous people, true believers, and they raised their child in the same spirit. The future saint grew up an unusual child: I didn’t like to play with other children, I didn’t steal turnips, I didn’t chase girls. But he went to church as if it were a holiday, prayed with all his might, and from the age of ten he kept wanting to go to a monastery. But his parents held him back. “It’s too early for you,” they said, “wait until we die.” If they left an inheritance, then... No, you won’t believe it: he gave everything to the poor and finally became a monk. But this was not enough for him. The saint also definitely wanted to suffer and “kill the flesh” - that is, by hunger and labor to bring himself to the point where no nonsense could enter his head. To do this, he retired to the desert (a secluded place), took a vow of silence, walked in cold, torn clothes in any frost, drank only water and ate bread crusts - and he had plenty of that. And for this he was happy: he had a wonderful gift. He could, for example, heal the sick and foresee the future, stop enemies at the walls of the monastery, or bring rain during a drought with prayer. He also foresaw his death and, before dying, he called other monks to him and made a speech. And when he died, joy was written on his face: finally! The life consisted of a description of posthumous miracles, because miracles are a sign of holiness. The simplest miracle was considered to be incorruption, that is, the saint’s body did not decompose even after many years; on the contrary, a fragrance emanated from it. But usually posthumous miracles were much more wonderful: the saint could appear at the right moment and help the monastery, or even disperse the enemy army.
This is how a person can perceive life ironically in our disheveled times. But Ancient Rus' lived according to its own laws, and no matter how bad a person was, he still felt himself to be part of the Church. He recognized her moral authority, believed in miracles, and for him the saint was truly a saint.
It is clear that real lives were not written as carbon copies and could differ greatly from each other. For example, in the life of Stefanius of Perm, the number of miracles was reduced to zero. The saints lived different lives, and the lives turned out to be different.
But what if the saint was not a monk, but a prince? After all, a prince in Ancient Rus' is, first of all, a warrior. And Christian holiness and war, weapons, murder are incompatible things. How did the author, who was commissioned to compose a story about the holy life of the prince, act in such cases?
In the 13th century, the life of Prince Alexander Nevsky was written. We know him as a talented commander. The Novgorod prince appears as a brave warrior who won brilliant victories, a skilled diplomat who knew how to negotiate with the Mongol khans, and a firm Christian who defended his religious beliefs in a dispute with the envoys of the Pope. The author constantly emphasizes: with a sword in his hand, Alexander defended Russian Orthodoxy from “Roman”, “wrong” Christianity, and the independence of the Russian Church - from the envoys of the Pope. It is not very important whether Alexander really was like that. After all, the author’s goal is to create an ideal image, an example to other princes and all people, to show that it is possible to live a righteous life not only within the walls of the monastery, but also in the world.
Drawing a convincing image of an ideal, or positive, hero is still one of the most difficult tasks for the writer. Ideal heroes usually turn out to be not very lively; on the contrary, they often turn out boring and sketchy. Therefore, the most talented authors of hagiographies tried to humanize their heroes and bring them closer to readers. The most famous ancient Russian life is dedicated to the spiritual feat of Sergius of Radonezh, the founder of the Trinity-Sergius Monastery. If his contemporary Prince Dmitry Donskoy managed to unite the political and military forces of the Russian principalities for the decisive battle with the Tatar-Mongols - Kulikovo (1380), then Sergius became the spiritual unifier of Rus', it was he who blessed Dmitry and the entire Russian army for this battle. The Life of Sergius was written by Epiphanius, who was nicknamed the Wise. He very delicately supplements the story about the saint with everyday details and life situations that enliven, but do not diminish the image of Sergius. It turns out that in childhood the saint had problems with his studies, and he found it difficult to read and write. And when Sergius retired into the desert, a bear began to visit him, with whom the saint shared his meager food. The scene becomes almost humorous when a certain person who came to see the famous old man does not believe that the old man dressed in beggarly clothes with a shovel in the garden is the famous Sergius from Radonezh. Early election by God for religious activity, love for people, tireless physical and spiritual work, modesty, almost poverty in everyday life, the ability to create miracles as evidence of the power of faith - these are the traits of the Russian saint.

As children, many children want to be like their mom and dad. They often adopt their parents' manner of speaking and moving. Facial expressions. Gestures.
The teenager already strives to imitate his idols or stars. Clothing and gait are being copied. Sometimes he gets so carried away that he can no longer distinguish where he himself appears and what belongs to the idol.
Where does the desire to be like someone come from?
Basically we try to imitate someone we like. Or we believe that he is more successful and realized. There is another reason why we strive to be like someone else. When we don't like ourselves.
What can psychology explain about the reasons for this behavior?
Awareness of the reasons is the first step to correcting it.
Books on self-improvement and self-development can bring positive results if they allow us to develop our abilities in the right direction.
But what to do when specialized literature does not bring effective results?
Because we do not distinguish either ourselves or the people around us by their mental properties. System-vector psychology of Yuri Burlan gives an understanding of the inner essence of the processes occurring with a person.
What we copy from other people, be it clothes or the way we move or dress, is not always our essence. During the training, an understanding comes of why this happens.
The person I want to be like - German topic
Ein Lehrer… Wie viel Liebe, Gefuhl wird ihm verschenkt. Man hort auf ihn, man glaubt auf ihn. Alle Kinder traumen den besten Lehrer zu haben. In diesem Sinne habe ich Gluck. In der Schule hatte ich begabte und phantasievolle Lehrer. Das Lernen brachte mir nur Spa?, alle Facher fielen mir sehr leicht. Aber in der Schule uber alles gern hatte ich Russischstunde. Mein Lehrer spielte dabei nicht zuletzte Rolle. Ich bin auch zukunftige Lehrerin und mochte meinem Lieblingslehrer aus der Schulzeit ahnlich sein. Er ist ein Lehrer vom Gott, er spurte uns sehr gut. Man kann eindeutig sagen, er hatte die Menschen sehr gern und meinte es gut mit uns, egal, was wir so alles unternommen hatten. Wir konnten immer ganz offen mit ihm uber verschiedene Probleme sprechen und waren sicher, dass sie Verstandnis dafur aufbringt. Also, jetzt mochte ich ganz gerne uber diesen Lehrer erzahlen. Er hei?t Stepan Prohorowitsch. Zurzeit ist er 47 Jahre alt. Er unterrichtet Russisch und Literatur in der Mittelschule meines Dorfes.
Er ist allgemein hoch gebildet und kennt sich in seinem Fach ganz gut aus, er gibt seine Kenntnisse den Kindern uber. In seiner Arbeit bedenkt Stepan Prohorowitsch immer, was der Schuler heute lernen mu?. Er vermittelt dem Schuler Kenntnisse, Fahigkeiten und Fertigkeiten, die den Schuler spater befahigen, selbststandig weiterzulernen, mit seinem Wissen zu operieren, es im Leben praktisch anwenden zu konnen.
Die meisten Lehrer geben den Schulern das Gefuhl allwissend zu sein. Aber dieser Lehrer ist anders. Der Unterricht ist bei ihm nicht zu streng, aber er macht deutlich, wo er Grenze setzt. Er hat sich gegenuber den Schulern eine gewisse Achtung erarbeitet. Das erlaubt ihm lockeren Unterricht zu fuhren. Sein Unterricht ist immer interessant, witzig, spannend und lustig einerseits, und andererseits sehr inhaltsreich und arbeitsvoll. Jede seine Stunde war fur mich eine Entdeckung in der Sprache selbst, in der Kultur, Tradition, Lebensweise und der Geschichte der Ru?en. Das war immer wieder interessant. Au?erdem erklart Stepan Prohorowitsch alles so einfach, dass jeder Schuler schon beim ersten Mal alles versteht und fuhrt immer Beispiele an. Dabei kann er ganz gut zensieren. Er hat gute Kenntnisse in Methodik und Didaktik. Er kann immer ein gutes Wort nicht nur fur begabte Kinder, sondern auch fur so genannte Problemkinder finden. Das ist sehr wichtig fur den Lehrer.
Stepan Prohorowitsch war fur uns immer ein bisschen Mutter und Vater, die ihre Kinder auf das Leben vorbereiten. Dazu muss man die Kinder lieben. Er versteht das.
Stepan Prohorowitsch wie auch andere Lehrer formt die Weltanschauung, den Charakter des Kindes. Deshalb stellt man an ihn immer hohe Forderungen. Stepan Prohorowitsch ist prinzipiell, feinfullig, geduldig, gutherzig, und aufmerksam, er hat immer eine gute Laune und lasst alle seine Probleme zu Hause. Naturlich hat Stepan Prohorowitsch nicht nur Vorteile, sondern auch einige Nachteile. Er kann sich nicht immer beherrschen. Aber zu den Charaktereigenschaften dieses Lehrers gehoren Liebe und Verstandnis zu den Kindern, Konsequenz und Risikobereitschaft in seinen Entscheidungen, Gute, Geduld, Ausdauer, Warmherzigkeit, Offenheit, Gro?zugigkeit. Stepan Prohorowitsch ist immer bereit, menschlich an sich zu arbeiten. Er besitzt Phantasie und hat etwas Besonderes in sich. Seine Stunden unterscheiden sich von allen anderen.
Stepan Prohorowitsch arbeitet im Dorf, deshalb steht er wie kaum ein anderer im Licht der Offentlichkeit, taglich wird er gepruft, wache Kinderaugen sind immer auf ihn gerichtet. Die Eltern, Gro?eltern, alle im Dorf gucken auf den Lehrer. Sie prufen, was er macht, wie er sich in bestimmten Situationen verhalt. Und Stepan Prohorowitsch wei? das, er wei?, dass er taglich beobachtet wird, dass sein eigenes leben wie unter der Lupe verlauft. Dieser Lehrer war und ist ein Vorbild fur seine Zoglinge. Dabei nicht nur in der Schule, sondern auch irgendwo auf der Stra?e, im Bus, im Geschaft.
Dieser Lehrer ist immer mit seiner Arbeit zufrieden, obwohl es im Leben des Lehrers immer mehr Schwierigkeiten gibt. Er ist der echte Lehrer vom Gott. Ich bin glucklich, dass ich seine Schulerin war. Naturlich konnte ich jetzt sagen, ich mochte Jullia Robberts oder Madonna ahnlich sein. Fur die meisten Madchen sind sie ideal. Mein Lehrer ist nicht so beruhmt, aber er ist ein guter Mensch und ein idealer Lehrer. Als Lehrerin und als Mensch mochte ich meinem Lehrer ahnlich sein.
