One of Darwin’s most famous concepts, the theory of natural selection, is a perfectly logical explanation of why certain species die out, while others manage to develop further on, adapting to the changing environment. According to Darwin, the theory of natural selection presupposes that only the fittest, the strongest and the most adaptable creatures can survive in the changing habitat and, therefore, will give birth to the further generations of healthy and easily adaptable descendants. Although the given theory is often misinterpreted as the idea that only the species that are the most physically strong can survive through the changes in the environment, it is clear that Darwin had the adaptability as the key method of the ability to survive in mind. Physical strength is obviously not the issue in the given case, or, at least, it is not the biggest issue compared to the rest of the assets that a creature must possess to be fit to survive. The given theory is closely intertwined with the key principles of the theory of evolution, also offered by Darwin. Indeed, according to the latter, evolution presupposes not only the development of new skills and capabilities but also the training and perfection of the already existing ones to become the superior member among the specified species. It is quite impressive that the process of natural selection does not involve great modifications of the breed – on the contrary, the basic features that distinguish the specified species from a similar group are kept intact, while the strength is increased in the process of natural selection. Biologically, the given phenomenon is quite easy to explain as a result of a combination of two types of genes, the dominant and the recessive one, the dominant shaping the features of a specific species. Thus, the key idea of natural selection is that the further generations are supposed not only to inherit the assets of their ancestors but also to demonstrate improved abilities and skills. When considering Darwin’s theory a bit further than the famous only-the-strong-survives principle, one will see that the theory of natural selection offers a plethora of opportunities for self-analysis and a better understanding of one’s social role as well as the chances for the possible upgrade in the social status. Although the principle of species survival is no longer topical for the humankind in its crude original idea of killing the rival, competitiveness is still a driving power behind a number of scopes of activity, which means that Darwin’s principle of natural selection theory still proves to work well. Although the implications of Darwin’s theory of natural selection cannot be considered the ultimate approach to understanding the specifics of one’s own behavior patterns, they still help understand whether someone is suited to be a leader or supposed to follow someone else’s orders. Helping to define the key features of dominant behavior, Darwin’s theory gives a clear vision of humankind being split into two major parts, i.e., the leaders and their “subordinates.” That being said, Darwin’s theory can be considered a perfect foil for one’s own development and the change of behavioral patterns towards more leadership-oriented ones. It is noteworthy, though, that Darwin’s theory of natural selection allows enhancing one’s self-understanding from the strictly biopsychologi
