If a teacher tells you something don't just mindless accept, ask yourself if what he says appears true. If it appears true then attempt to uncover possible effects this realization may have upon your life. If it doesn't make sense, look at it again, try to be open. If it STILL doesn't make sense approach him/her and explain your dilemma If no satisfactory answer comes up ... oh well, don't use or apply that rule, and keep listening. Repeat until dead. ;) Steve
