[6] A person who lacks discipline will not be able to devote himself to the intensive<br \/>\nstudy necessary to master a subject. Discipline does not mean the forced performance of<br \/>\ndull routine, however. That only deadens the mind and replaces true inquiry. Discipline<br \/>\nmeans focusing one&#8217;s attention on the object of study until it becomes clear, until it is understood<br \/>\nand can be used. The <a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/07\/good-morning_23.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">young child<\/a> is accustomed to play and expects everything to<br \/>\nbe fun. But the serious student finds pleasure in working on something that is difficult until<br \/>\nit becomes easy.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\n2. [9] A kind man is patient with inexperienced youth. He is meticulous with explanations<br \/>\nto those who find it difficult to comprehend. He takes it as his responsibility to help and encourage<br \/>\nsuch persons, not to ridicule and humiliate them. With tolerance and inner<br \/>\nstrength, such a man is able to lead large groups of the young and inexperienced.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\n3. [6] An inexperienced person, seeking improvement, loses his way if he indulges himself<br \/>\nin adulation of a strong man that he views as a hero. It is not by becoming a devotee of<br \/>\nsome admired person, but by developing one&#8217;s own inner self that a person is able to find<br \/>\nhis true self. Hero worship is bad for both the worshipper and the object of his adulation,<br \/>\nbecause it focuses on a personal, emotional relationship rather than on the development of<br \/>\nindependence. A servile relationship only leads to disillusionment.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\n4. [6] There is little that can be done for one who is caught up in fantasy and unrealistic expectations.<br \/>\nSuch a person needs to escape his imaginative world and return to reality. The<br \/>\nbest thing a teacher can do is to abandon such a one to his folly until he comes back down<br \/>\nto earth.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\n5. [6] To be childlike in attitude is to be open to receive instruction. Openness does not necessarily<br \/>\nmean being gullible. It means not being arrogant, not being resistant nor full of<br \/>\noneself and one&#8217;s own ideas. Such a mind is easy to teach, and is the perfect soil for developing<br \/>\na flourishing intellect.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\nTop. [9] At times, it is necessary to take firmer measures with <a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/10\/good-morning-h-4.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">youthful folly<\/a> when it persists.<br \/>\nBut the punishment should be mild, and its purpose must be to educate, not to destroy.<br \/>\nThe desired end is that the wrongdoer learns to act more responsibly and to abandon<br \/>\nhis foolish ways. But excessive punishment will only teach resentment and harden attitudes,<br \/>\nnot serve to prevent a recurrence. The purpose of punishment for pursuing folly is<br \/>\nnot to inflict retribution, but to change behavior.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><b><br \/><\/b><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><b><span style=\"text-align: center;\">Credit |&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/HwLJDbeTfnI\" style=\"text-align: center;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">youtube.com<\/a><\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\nPlease Comment, Like and Share<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Credit | youtube.com The Lines Bottom.
