MY SIX. STEPS IN THE
ART OF SELF MASTERY
in the American
t Wm. L. George,
interestingly
very
,magazine, talks
-about how he became successful in
•this world by becoming master of hini
self. Surely We cannot be successful
\teachers unless we become masters of
.ourselves, and I thihk it -would be of
•great value to us, as Normal students ,
>.to read something about how another
'gained that all-important essential to
success—-self-mastery.
He tells us that there are six steps
leading to self-mastery. The first one
that he discusses is the conquering of
shyness. He gives us two instances
of how he was successful in accomplishing this end. The first thing that
he did was to enter a large department store upon its opening for three
successive mornings, pass ranks of
disdainful salesladies, and upon arriving at the childrens' department
purchased one yard of red baby ribbon. (A color to match his countenance). After he had gone through
this ordeal, the dance problem still
confronted him , for he was always
very shy and ill at ease at a dance.
Finally, he decided that instead of
crawling1 around the edges of a dance
hall to reach his partner, he would
walk directly across the floor and
""t.ually stop in the middle of the
m to tie his shoe ! Thus he gave
craven nature something to crave
.. >ut and conquered his shyness.
Next he tells us that the second
step . to self-mastery is to know how
to state your case. He says that only
those who are complete masters of
themselves can state their case well.
The right way to state a case is to
prepare it in advance and then you
will never be at a loss for the right
woi'd at the most opportune time.
He goes on to say that the art of
organizing work and time is the third
step to be master of yourself. He believes that when you are having a
heated discussion with a person , you
should allow him to exhaust all his objectio ns while you remain perfectly
silent.. If you let a man do this his
kindliness will assert itself
