the road less travelled 1.1

bought a book at amazon for 0.01 pound! *syiok~ though adding delivery cost, it ended up 2.57, it is still worth every single penny!

by M. Scott Peck, it is a book published 11 years ago.

gonna share little bits of every chapter with everyone =)

part one: discipline

1.1 problems and pain

"life is a series of problems. do we want to moan about them or solve them?"

"discipline is the set of tools required to solve life's problems.
without discipline we can solve nothing.
with only some discipline we can solve only some problems.
with total discipline we can solve all problems."

"most of us all not so wise.
fearing the pain involved, almost all of us, to a greater or lesser degree, attempt to avoid problems.
we procrastinate, hoping that they will go away.
we ignore them, forget them, pretend they do not exist.
we even take drugs to assist us in ignoring them,
so that deadening ourselves to the pain we can forget the problems causing the paint.
we attempt to skirt around the problems rather than meet them head on.
we attempt to get out of them rather than suffer through them"

" what are these tools, these techniques of sufferings, these means of experiencing the pain of problems constructively that i call discipline? there are four:
delaying of gratification,
acceptance of responsibility,
dedication to the truth, and
balancing."
