All Tendencies within a Person are Correct - with a BJS comment

Formulation of Values 2/16/57 pg 16

PUTNAM: “To plead for friendship, to be self-restrained, to be angry, to be subservient, to be able to assume and give expression to all such attitudes, does not lead to chaos. Accepting this broader sympathy makes the resolving as between them susceptible to verbal regulation.”

BJS - What this means is that within the drama shop of your self, be able to step back and sort-out and categorize the edge of your feelings - how you are acting, or behaving that very moment…

—‘Ha! Now I am the Buddha of anger! - and now of remorse! - and now of joy!, etc. etc.’

Remove yourself to a slight distance and so be able to see and evaluate yourself in action. See that within yourself you have the many tendencies, and knowing this you can see which you are using and when. You are thus not at the edge of, or run around by, or led by your tendencies or immediate feelings. Knowledge of this, or about this, is gained by experience in living, but also can be aided by understand the model (how the brain works) and thereby an aid in developing the mature life skills and patterns.

“The Model” provides insight into self - for those struggling for identity.
On the one hand this is the only struggle.
On the other hand it is vain pursuit for only God (probability) rules.

To recognize this discrepancy is a toehold into the model.
