1, I'm in charge in my life. Americans don't believe in fate. People believe that nothing is impossible. Find it right, no matter how much it costs, it must be made. Americans look down on those who are not motivated, lose confidence in the future or lament that "this is their destiny". You are the master of your own destiny.
2. seek change. In the eyes of Americans, change is associated with growth, development, improvement and progress. Change means improvement of conditions. Today, Americans have made such great achievements because they believe that there is nothing in the world that they can't do, and because they firmly believe that any American, whether a man or a woman, has a responsibility and should try his best to do everything well. Americans don't like the step-by-step, unchangeable or continuous and stable traditional values left by their ancestors.
3. Cherish time as gold. Time is the most important thing for Americans. To foreigners, Americans seem to care more about finishing their work on time as planned than spending time on internal interpersonal coordination. Once the work plan is made, Americans will carry it out to the letter. In America, it is very impolite to be late, even if it is only 10 minutes late. If you have to be late, you should call in advance. Among American words, time-related words or phrases are: on (punctuality), kept (catching up), filled (killing arrangement), saved (saving), used (spending), spend (wasting), lost (losing), given (gaining) and so on.
4. Fairness and justice. All men are created equal, which means that everyone enjoys equal opportunities for success in life. However, different people have different views on how to turn the ideal into reality. Foreigners, even those who live at the bottom of society, feel that Americans believe in the values of equality regardless of their status and social status, which is unbelievable. A foreigner, especially a person with status in his own country, must be psychologically prepared to be an ordinary person in the United States before going to the United States.
5. Publicize your personality. The value of individuality originated from the Renaissance in the West16th century, and reached its acme in the United States in the 2nd1century. Whether in thought or in action, Americans are different everywhere. They will join many organizations. But in an organization, they will show even a little difference, a little uniqueness and a little difference from other members. Americans are absolutely free to express their views anytime and anywhere, but when electing the president of the United States, they either vote for the Democratic Party or the Republican Party.
6. Free competition. In the United States, schools and families educate children about competition from an early age and encourage them to answer questions enthusiastically in class. Americans believe that competition will bring challenges and pressures, and only competition can do the best. Free competition has promoted the rapid development of American enterprises and American economy, and it is precisely because of free competition that the rapid progress of American sports, education and art has been achieved.
