Theme 13    :     Stress of waiting in self-studying



I. The definition of the stress of waiting (as "burdened with negative emotions connected with a firmly
            fixed date").
II. Waiting for the result in self-studying.
    1. Close and remote results.
    2. Regard of studying as an extended stress of waiting for a remote result.
    3. Subjective assessment of achievements and accustomness to thought.
    4. Account for the assessments changed and correction of goals.
    5. Minor goals setting:
         a) tactical tasks put low and minor goals;
         b) moving from one result to another and sensation of the skill;
         c) development of analytic abilities and sense of superiority over the former Self;
         d) observing the rule of transition to the following material without assimilation, but after
                acquaintance with the previous and its motoric reproduction;
         e) goal setting and result premonition;
         f) the period fixed shall be brief; the rule of splitting up;
         g) lack of probability factor in goal-setting and psychic traumatism;
         h) minor goal gaining as a hedonistic act;
          i) dissonance in assessments: the autodidact and surrounding, readiness for discrepancy in
                  assessments: "When has he managed to do all this?" and "He knows quite enough of
                  everything."
    6. Major goal setting in selfstudying:
         a) embroadening of outlook;
         b) "the way to the co-planetarian", obtaining a like-minded friend;
         c) moving to the past and the effect of drawing the past and present closer together;
         d) the correction of the major goal as a creative obligation.
    7) Grammar of waiting:
         a) the notion of punctuation, main and secondary parts and pauses;
         b) competent waiting as the process of step-by-step complication of the minor goals
                 (conscious substitution of a remote and at the present unrealizable goal by a close
                  one which could be realized quite quickly);
         c) critical mass of knowledge - waiting for it and active employment of associative method,
                  continuum (long-lasting immersion, durable efforts, etc.);
         d) the role of making selfstudying down-to-earth; parallelism, polyphony, sense of satisfaction
                   with the time lived through and alleviation of stress occurred due to long waiting;
                   The rule: The more energetically you study the milder is stress of waiting.
         e) awareness of abilities and technique efficiency;
         f) consideration for the law of objective existence of a gap with no regard for the quality of
                   knowledge (a point gap and a considerable gap);
         g) legenda libri and waiting; the role of preliminary anthological acquaintance and
                   certainty in nonexistence of space gaps;
         h) quasi - modesta;
          i) quasi-immodesty and acceleration: sincere information about one's studies and indirect
                    obligations ("I said that I could - it means that I have to do it");
         j) ambitions for oneself (haste, competition with oneself) speed acceleration and
                    stress-of-waiting alleviation;
        k) psycho-relaxation (yoga technique, autotraining, the right brain setting) and waiting, sense of
                    fragility as tension release;
         l) fragility of one's personal being and waiting for results in studies; "the last day status",
                    entrance into the noosphere, quasi-religious feeling of making contribution to the
                    spiritual storage of the world knowledge, possibility of normative usage of lofty words;
        m) the method of removing oneself into the future; relaxed fancying oneself in the future in 
                     various periods;
         n) displacement of training and expectation of the unexpectable: we train or study a certain
                     thing, but actually perfect another;
         o) the notion of frustration, autoaggression, re-evaluation of values, abilities, intentions, etc.
         p) moderate fixation of dates as the means of relaxation.
    8) Stress of waiting and subject studying:
         a) general ideas about the subject being studied and satisfaction with the essence obtained;
         b) the limits of analytic penetration and divergence of requirements: "It is possible to be
                     ignorant of this , but as for that, I should study it";
         c) psychic nourishment and the Law of connected knowledges.


* * *

The most of us are “others”. That's a law
for common members of a usual crowd.
A name vibrates, but it is not too long,
a part of giant voice, of general “know”.

But this huge sum of souls is ground where grow
the individuals, those who are out
of harmony of “much”, of roaming about,
of cluster of the touches that is one blow.

The bulk is only fertile fickle soil
so changeable - like Proteus when we toil
up, like a mountain steep, courageous hope,

to proud highness of a solitude
that we for own songs sake make to protrude
from greedy jaw of an accord in which we crop.
