Relation to other people
What is the individual's relationship to other people?
American attitude assesses individualism and understands fulfilment as advanced through personal accomplishment. Maximizing one's opportunities and capacities transmutes to a moral obligation.
However although Americans pride themselves on their attitude for personal freedom, many a American business enterprises (in particular in such long-standing sectors as finance and insurance) are markedly hierarchical. By comparing, in collectivistic Japan, even a chief executive director whose company bears his name cognizes he is required to balance personal desires against the compatibility of the grouping.
Hominal activity
What is the mode of human action?
It is claimed that United States cultivation does not provide distinct means of achieving self-recognition other than through action and performance, and so goal-accomplishment becomes a means by which you characterize yourself apart from the grouping.
Because other individuals should be capable to recognize this accomplishment, it has to be visible and measurable. Thus financial copiousness offers one measuring of prospering activity. Within the organization, employees are prompted by promises of progress and status symbolizations overtly associated with rank and file such as a premium company automobile and a luxuriously fitted bureau.
Buddhist mental attitudes in South-east Asia which correspond to beliefs in rebirth maintain that the individual is born into his/her present status and fortune by virtuousness of worthy acts performed in a former life and that effort in this life may be superfluous. By precluding wicked acts and by preserving the harmony of present circumstances, you support your opportunity of being born into a elevated position in your succeeding rebirth.

What is the temporal centering of anthropomorphic activeness?
The US is ordinarily held up as a future-determined social group which judges that the forthcoming can be intended and contained. Moreover, the future is bound to be better than the existing just as the existing is required to be a betterment on the past. However this positioning may be short-term.
