			<title>That reminds me ...</title>

			<description><![CDATA[The comment on misusing resources reminds me of another way that DM is blocking expansion. Apart from the fact that he uses musical chairs to unmock the production on the Int Base, he makes it worse by putting the wrong people on the various posts (and removing the productive ones). Why else did he put Steve to write scripts in Cine? Putting people on posts they don't want to do and to pull successful people off post is just another way to suppress them.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thanks Jim, Admired your work. This site might benefit from a proper work on "Getting Ethics In On The Planet" so that understanding of the subject could spread. I'm sure that hidden in some of Ron's tapes are plenty of inspirations for the subject--before ethics became a "Justice System."]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Yeah, sorry about the dream--sort of, as you understand. Our basic purpose always seems to fit somewhere on the org board. Even though we hold every post on the first dynamic, we specialize our posts as we move across the second, third and fourth. Efficient utilization of resources dictates using the best resource for its purpose. You wouldn't use a cow as transportation if you had a horse also. Maybe I should do an article on "Finding Your Proper Place On The Org Board." That orgs misuse resources by improper personnel placement always left me scratching my head. Why put the doctor in the bathroom and the plumber in the clinic? Hmmm. I think a lot of people leave by being pulled off their basic purpose which creates a personal dynamic problem.]]></description>

			<title>Being \'tough\'</title>
			<link>https://mail.scientology-cult.com/whos-tough.html#comment-516</link>
			<description><![CDATA[I think this sums it up: (From How to Present Scientology to the World) "It's perfectly all right to be nice to people. It isn't a weakness at all; nothing weak about being nice. In matter of fact, if you aren't, you're in the soup" "You could say that the only times for which you were suffering are those times when you weren't nice enough. When you weren't kind enough and when you weren't unmean enough and those are the only times from which you're really suffering" "The only thing you should ever be tough about is insist that the other fellow ought to stand on his own feet too. And the only way you'll ever communicate that to him is to communicate it to him in a very nice way. Then he's liable to receive it". - L. Ron Hubbard (copyright © L. RON HUBBARD!!!)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Once Upon a Time, I second Thoughtful heartily. In fact, I think you have nailed a MAJOR why on the whole management action for decades. This is so insightful I'm excited as could be. Brilliant.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thanks to you!! My dream when joining SO was to be an MAA, just for this very reason. That I was never posted to any Ethics position was a miracle, "Thank God for unanswered prayers". OnceUponaTime you have reminded me why it was my purpose, and I thank you!!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Funny you brought this up because I had recently examined why ethics presence was so misunderstood. Brutality is not ethics presence. Total ARC is ethics presence. Breaking ARC in others does not increase ethics. You can never enforce ethical behavior in someone. Ethics comes from a native sense of right and wrong. Ethics exists at the highest level of theta and is what makes integrity integrity. If going OT is becoming more and more "knowing cause" then you have to ask yourself what are you going to knowingly cause. Ethics is native to theta and guides one in what to knowingly cause]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[So true Thoughtful Steve. Scientology under the direction and control of Mary Sue the Controller in consultation with Ron, Commodore and Founder was a tough, dedicated Organization but it was never harsh and it was always fun. Even when we were working maybe fifteen hours a day. Not because someone told us to but because we wanted to be there. In fact it was Mary Sue who said that "if it wasn't fun it wasn't Scientology." It is obvious that Miscavige canceled that directive when He took over.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Kirsi, Thanks for the huge compliment. Miscavige's ideals violate the ARC triangle. ARC has always been the keynote of any real Scientologist, not combativeness. LRH said many times the Auditor's Code would be the ideal for anyone living a successful life. Miscavige has perverted the ideal to being a Gestapo-like "ethics interview." The guy just flat out has zero ARC. He can't conceive of ARC (being a textbook SP) since in his delusional state everyone around him is an enemy and he's fighting them.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thoughtful, You outdid yourself. Harsh is the appropriate word to describe what it had become. The inventor of SRA - Severe Reality Adjustment has taken Harsh to a new level and graduated to simple angry barbaric [censored]ysical assaults, when those SRAs don't work. There were some very tough times with LRH, however, after those storms subsided the warm sunshine was incredibly good and a contrast.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thoughtful, you hit something very deep and dear, my god do you have a way of getting under the skin! I wept then laughed, when was the last time I laughed like this? That artificial and false toughness was the primary reason I left the SO after having served 18 years. The disappointment in self and the initial idea of having failed, as by all appearances I had, have been replaced by the truth which is so well articulated in this site. Who is Tough? Thoughtful, Steve, you are, without a doubt.]]></description>
