A person who is characterized by low self esteem, a high level of conviction, and an inability to admit to making mistakes is likely to lack flexibility regarding behavior patterns. Such a person is not likely to engage in regular reflexive assessment of the consequences of their own behavior, mind-set and attitudes. A successful linkage of intellect to behavior thus depends upon attitudes and upon a mind set upon flexibility, which is responsive to a pattern of regular reflexive assessments of the consequences of behaving according to mind-sets and to attitudes which are experimentally tried out to see where they lead. With such a mind-set the mind is not set in its ways; it is free to try out different attitudes and patterns of thought. People whose mind-set is inflexible are not free to adjust their behavior to adjust successfully to new experiences with new intellectual insights. The key to a liberating educational activity is the key which sets people free to adopt a flexible mind-set involving a dedication to regular reflexive assessment of the consequences of behaving according to a particular mind-set and set of attitudes. The key will not be found in intellectual activities which are not related to daily behavior. The key will not be found in purely intellectual success, no matter how sophisticated and respected such success may be. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
