The interests of people evolved historically. Currently, they are multifaceted, absolutely versatile, they should be considered in combination with the lifestyle, upbringing, age and habits of everyone. Obviously, the interests of older people will differ from the interests of youth, if only because the needs at each age are not the same. Interest always motivates a person to act to one degree or another: the higher it is, the greater the desire to know the subject as best as possible.
The interests of people can be classified according to their duration, social significance, areas of life, as well as the nature of the subjects, focus and interaction.
For example, according to the nature of their orientation, they are divided into economic, social, political and spiritual. Spiritual interests do not set a goal of material enrichment, but are aimed at developing a person, gaining experience, increasing potential and emotional saturation of life. The economic interests of people are always aimed at benefiting or benefiting from economic relations.
According to the degree of social significance, they distinguish vital, important and less important interests. For different people, the same interest can be classified in different ways. For example, for someone it is very important to get a higher education and get a well- paid job, while someone puts this interest almost in the last place and prefers to develop in the spiritual sphere.
Often in everyday situations, we are faced with
conflicts of interest. This happens when different parties claim the same thing or goal. Whether a conflict situation arises and how it ends will depend on several factors:
- From the type of person. If you meet people of the same nature - persistent, decisive and strong in spirit - then there will certainly be a conflict. If at least one side knows how to negotiate and make concessions, then a controversial situation can be avoided.
- From the upbringing and civilization of the parties. If people are not inherent in aggressiveness, greed, bitterness and other negative traits, then they will try to find a compromise. A well-mannered person will always follow his words and deeds and will never bring to a critical moment.
- From personal relationships between the parties. If the participants in the emerging conflict respect each other, if they value interpersonal relationships, then they will find a way to resolve the dispute peacefully.
Henceforth, in order not to develop a conflict of interest, one should resort to one of the following methods: either turn it into a competition, or find a compromise, or avoid disputes, or agree with the conditions of the opponent.
It is obvious that at different stages of existence the same interests undergo significant changes, as they are very dynamic in nature. Thus, the interests of people largely reflect their goals and orientation, and also to a large extent determine the whole life path. And at the same time, life itself leaves its mark and affects their interest.
