On pages 24-25 in the textbook, you will see paired examples of good traits and poor traits that illustrate various areas of the "disciplined mind" versus the "undisciplined mind." choose two examples from the paired traits (or a total of four), define what that particular trait means to you, and give a good example that illustrates that trait in practice. While considering your examples, be sure to focus on how these traits specifically apply to how we think, rather than focusing on actions or behavior that reflects the the trait you have chosen. In other words, what is the difference between courageous thinking and courageous action? Keep a focus on the application of the traits to critical thinking.
