[6] A person who lacks discipline will not be able<br \/>\nto devote himself to the intensive study necessary to master a subject.<br \/>\nDiscipline does not mean the forced performance of dull routine, however. That<br \/>\nonly deadens the mind and replaces true inquiry. Discipline means focusing<br \/>\none&#8217;s attention on the object of study until it becomes clear, until it is<br \/>\nunderstood and can be used. The <a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/07\/good-morning_23.html\">young<br \/>\nchild<\/a> is accustomed to play and expects everything to be fun. But the<br \/>\nserious student finds pleasure in working on something that is difficult until<br \/>\nit becomes easy. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>2. [9] A kind man is patient with inexperienced youth. He is<br \/>\nmeticulous with explanations to those who find it difficult to comprehend. He<br \/>\ntakes it as his responsibility to help and encourage such persons, not to<br \/>\nridicule and humiliate them. With tolerance and inner strength, such a man is<br \/>\nable to lead large groups of the young and inexperienced. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>3. [6] An inexperienced person, seeking improvement, loses<br \/>\nhis way if he indulges himself in adulation of a strong man that he views as a<br \/>\nhero. It is not by becoming a devotee of some admired person, but by developing<br \/>\none&#8217;s own inner self that a person is able to find his true self. Hero worship<br \/>\nis bad for both the worshipper and the object of his adulation, because it<br \/>\nfocuses on a personal, emotional relationship rather than on the development of<br \/>\nindependence. A servile relationship only leads to disillusionment. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>4. [6] There is little that can be done for one who is<br \/>\ncaught up in fantasy and unrealistic expectations. Such a person needs to<br \/>\nescape his imaginative world and return to reality. The best thing a teacher<br \/>\ncan do is to abandon such a one to his folly until he comes back down to earth.<br \/>\n<o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>5. [6] To be childlike in attitude is to be open to receive<br \/>\ninstruction. Openness does not necessarily mean being gullible. It means not being<br \/>\narrogant, not being resistant nor full of oneself and one&#8217;s own ideas. Such a<br \/>\nmind is easy to teach, and is the perfect soil for developing a flourishing<br \/>\nintellect. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>Top. [9] At times, it is necessary to take firmer measures<br \/>\nwith <a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/10\/good-morning-h-4.html\">youthful<br \/>\nfolly<\/a> when it persists. But the punishment should be mild, and its purpose<br \/>\nmust be to educate, not to destroy. The desired end is that the wrongdoer<br \/>\nlearns to act more responsibly and to abandon his foolish ways. But excessive<br \/>\npunishment will only teach resentment and harden attitudes, not serve to<br \/>\nprevent a recurrence. The purpose of punishment for pursuing folly is not to<br \/>\ninflict retribution, but to change behavior. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>Please Comment, Like and Share<o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p><b style=\"text-align: center;\">Credit |&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HwLJDbeTfnI\" style=\"text-align: left;\">4.Youthful Folly &#8211; YouTube<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>+++++++++<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/p\/by-james-byrd-mba-business-consultant.html\" style=\"background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #004182; font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Roboto, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, &quot;Fira Sans&quot;, Ubuntu, Oxygen, &quot;Oxygen Sans&quot;, Cantarell, &quot;Droid Sans&quot;, &quot;Apple Color Emoji&quot;, &quot;Segoe UI Emoji&quot;, &quot;Segoe UI Emoji&quot;, &quot;Segoe UI Symbol&quot;, &quot;Lucida Grande&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.84px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0px 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"60\" data-original-width=\"468\" height=\"62\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/a\/AVvXsEj8wYgqJ2XWKNpEawp3ofPFX_EDxnjhGhLxlx24SdwWsy0V6WnHgYVqMM3CPvDNYEl2oL2VOJpaaF7kmLdi-0_B-m51cMpH2Qs4xasvEnQI9FRgun9OPDpFd-oMFG0uwD2xpDPBUQxLMooVXxkMwyXqOf66VSvEwUMCYeDfoVZpQnLgs3hiEXdtK7PRTg=w484-h62\" style=\"background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 1px 1px 5px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 15.84px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;\" width=\"484\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Credit |&nbsp;4.Youthful Folly &#8211; YouTube The Lines Bottom.
