Affirmation without discipline is the beginning of delusion.

- Jim Rohn

I have many Chinese students who, because I teach them one to one and have forged a relationship with them, tell me a great deal about their personal life. One of the things I have learned is that Middle School and University students spend time, during grade 7, 10 and their freshman year in university, training in the military.

Personally, I would hate it and don't ascribe to its practice. However, as an observer of political economy and nation states, I must admit that it is of incredible benefit. China has a vibrance to it and it owes this in part to the level of discipline that exists throughout its society.

On the contrary, in the US, there is a malaise that runs deep within its core. It is rotting from the inside out. Everywhere, you here the cry of how great America is, an affirmation without any discipline. It is a profound self-delusion and it is about to bite us all squarely on the ass.

Yunnan University

Enjoy the collegiate vibe when you visit Yunnan University, during your travels in Kunming. While you're in the area, stroll along the lakeside.

Kunming Zoo

4/5(1 review)

More than 50 species of animals are on display at this zoo, but the star attractions are the pretty plantings of cherry and plum trees on the slopes of Yuantong Hill.
