Powerful Influences On My Life

Powerful influences on my life include family, friends, sports, clubs, teachers, and where I grew up.  I believe my parents, Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents, teachers, coaches, etc. all hold domination power to some extent because I do have to follow their orders, rules, and respect them.  They all have taught me so much about life.  My parents never really used coercive power, but my coaches did to try and get us to learn and not make the same mistake twice.  I think it just put fear in the game though instead of my teammates and I positively learning from a mistake.  School is a consensual power as well as teachers and even coaches sometimes.  I am agreeing to go to a school to get an education and allowing a teacher to teach me on a specific topic, and I agree to be a part of a team and allow the coach to help me become a better player.  My clubs, friends, and teammates all held a transformative power.
