Struggling for acceptance from her grandfather, the Chief of a small Maori village, Paikea a young girl takes her place in line to be the next chief. Against the traditions of the past, the film, Whale Rider, displays the courage and motivation Paikea has to fulfill her destiny even against the ridicule of the one person she loves the most, Koro her grandfather. The Whale Rider confronts the different aspects of self-concept and the impact culture has on communication.
Self-concept is developed out of four main senses; other’s images, social comparisons, cultural teachings, and self-evaluation. We value the opinion of those closes to us, looking to see how they treat us and react to us. We have a need to compare ourselves to others to establish our self-concept.

Sometime ago I wrote a report titled, ‘Stop Compartmentalizing Your Life, a guide to establishing a balanced life’. I have yet to publish the report, although those that have read it seem to really enjoy the contents.
My most popular articles on this blog has been the article I wrote over 3 years ago titled Compartmentalization. Which is why I am writing this article, kinda as a recall, or update and potentially a start to the publication of my report. But that is going to be up to you the reader.
If you don’t have time to read the whole article now, drop down to the part written in red, starts off warning…Laddies you will get a kick out of this.
