One of those weeks
Sociologists have a phrase they like to use when explaining human behavior. It’s called front stage and back stage behavior. Front stage behavior means the behavior and attitude we show to others and back stage behavior is the behavior and attitude we either keep to ourselves or is shown to a very select group of people. The reason for that, the experts say, is self-protection. We want to project an image to others of self-confidence and someone in control of their own destiny rather than someone who is afraid of the next bad thing happening. But the truth is the next bad thing happens to all of us from time to time and how we manage it is influenced directly buy the confidence we have in ourselves.
