Socratic Method

I really like the section about the socratic method. I really liked how it talked about oppostition if you want to see how much someone really has learned or how well their skills are in the debating world you cant just give them something easy. As it is put in this paradigm the best way to evaluate someone's work is to "subject it to the strongest or most extreme opposition." This statement totally speaks to me, if you want to prove something works or make someone be the best they can be, you need to put it in the most extreme conditions to prove its worth. Through playing sports my whole life i have practiced a lot and ya it has not been that much fun. The things we do are completely and utterly hard and not fun at all. However, if you want something to be the best working they need to go through the pain to reach the joy afterwords you cant just simply sit around and hope to become great. Also in proving if something is good you cant just not test it with strong things, i know if i bought a car that is tested to be safe I really would like that car to have been through the most opposition and extreme conditions to ensure that it is the safest and best working there can be. To help prove someone they must be tested no one can really improve themselves if all they have to be is average. There must always be a goal worth working towards. The content with being average is what will destroy a hardworking top country. We all should push ourselves to be the best we can be.
