The Impact of a Disciplined Mentor and Teacher
Discipline is an underrated aspect of education and mentorship, according to the speaker. The speaker shares a story of being disciplined by a great teacher who suspended him and his friend for being late to a golf practice. Although the speaker initially resented the teacher, he later realized that the discipline was an act of love. The teacher embodied discipline while also having a sense of adventure and a unique style. He was knowledgeable about Asian food and had triple majored in physics, astrophysics, and painting. The teacher was not just focused on academic knowledge, but also provided mentorship through meaningful conversations and connections with students. The speaker believes that the teacher's lasting friendships with former students exemplify the impact and importance of mentorship in education beyond just academic subjects.
