SELF CONTROL

I'm an editorial in the Golden Rule ma
gazine, Napoleon Hill says:
YOU can never become a great leader
nor a person of influence in the cause of
justice until you have developed great
self control.
Before you can be of great service to
your felloWmen in any capacity you
must master the common human tenden-
cy of anger, intolerance, and cynicism.
When you permit another person to
make you angry you are allowing that
person to dominate you and dag you
down to his level.
To develop self control you must make
liberal and systematic use Of the Golden
Rule philosophy; you must acquire the
habit of fOrgiving those who annoy and
arouse you to anger.
Intolerance and s%eIfshneSs make very
poor bedfellows for self control. Those
qualities always clash when you try to
house them together. One of the other
must get out.
The first thing the shrewd lawyer
usually does when he starts to cross ex-
anime a witness is to make the witness
angry and thereby cause him to lose his
self control.
Anger is a state of insanity.
The well balanced person who is slow
at anger and who always remains cool
and calculating in his procedure. He re-
mains calm and delIbeta ate under all con-
Gitions.
Such a person can succeed in all legi-
