“As to methods there may be a million and Then some, but principles are few. The man who grasps principles can successfully select his own methods. The man who tries methods ignoring principles is sure to have trouble.” Ralph Waldo Emerson When we are confronted with difficult situations requiring us to make critical decisions we either trust our fate to other people’s experience and knowledge or we have to become good students of whatever game we are forced to play or chose to play. A good student commits to learning the major dynamic principles inherent in any subject she is studying. After understanding the dynamic principles of what she confronts her choices will be made in creative relationship to those principles or they will probably not be effective. So when in doubt as to what to do in any critical situation I try to become a good student.
