Beschreibung

Resistance to Civil Government, called Civil Disobedience for short, is an essay by American transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau that was first published in 1849. In it, Thoreau argues that individuals should not permit governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing such acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican–American War (1846–1848).

    Self-discipline is the cornerstone of personal development and success. It is the ability to control one’s emotions, behaviors, and actions in the face of temptations and impulses. In a world filled with distractions and instant gratification, self-discipline becomes increasingly important. It is what allows individuals to make decisions that align with their long-term goals, even when immediate desires may try to pull them off course. 
    At its core, self-discipline is about the ability to focus on what is important, not just what is easy. It involves a deep understanding of personal values and the determination to act according to those values, regardless of external influences. People who possess self-discipline are able to say "no" to short-term pleasures and distractions in favor of achieving their greater objectives. Whether it’s choosing to exercise, staying on top of work deadlines, or resisting the temptation to procrastinate, self-discipline helps maintain the balance between immediate gratification and long-term success. 
    One of the key aspects of self-discipline is understanding that it is not an inherent trait, but rather a skill that can be developed over time. While some individuals may have a natural tendency toward discipline, anyone can cultivate this ability with practice and persistence. The first step in building self-discipline is recognizing the areas in life where improvement is needed and then committing to making changes. This often involves setting clear goals, developing strategies, and following through on commitments, even when it feels difficult or inconvenient.

    Vandal Heaven - Reinterpreting...

    A new study that challenges previous interpretations of post-Roman North Africa.
    
    North Africa was one of the richest parts of the Roman Empire, the agricultural powerhouse of the Mediterranean. It was also home to some of the emperor’s biggest imperial estates, and prosperous cities of all kinds. Its loss to the Vandals in the first half of the 5th century AD was the mortal blow which both precipitated the fall of the western empire, and set the eastern empire back for decades. Its reconquest then became an obsession with each new emperor in Constantinople. Time and again the eastern Romans failed in this goal, until Justinian I finally succeeded in the AD 530s. Although North Africa’s restoration to the world of Rome only lasted a short time, it has widely been regarded as a positive development.
    
    However, new research—published here for the first time—shows that post-Roman North Africa thrived under the Vandals. To them it was Vandal heaven, a place where they found a way as the new incumbent elite to live comfortably alongside the late Roman inhabitants, despite their different interpretations of Christianity. Together, the two cultures flourished.
    
    When the eastern Romans – now styled Byzantines – returned, they weren’t welcome. This is evidenced in the surviving built environments of this new period of North African history, namely chains of small forts along the frontier and interior, where the Byzantines used mounted troops to keep an unhappy local population under control.
    
    Dr Elliott not only presents a brand-new interpretation of post-Roman North Africa, but makes the case that the Arab Conquest was so successful in this region because the Byzantine overlords were so unpopular. Furthermore his argument explains how the region today came to be part of the Arab world, in contrast to the regions along the northern Mediterranean freeboard, which maintain their Roman-ness to this day.
