Why did Americans accept the Constitution w/ its strong national goverment and powerful executive after....?
"revolting against similar British Institutions" - actually no. British institutions were the state (colonial) legislatures and governors: there was no national government of America before Independence. Each colony was independent, except for very weak oversight from London - oversight so weak that the UK govt couldn't even enforce the very low taxes it tried to impose. Also, the US had tried weak central govt in between 1776 and 1789, and it was a hopeless failure. Furthermore, US constitution doesn't impose a strong national government - it's a rather weak national government compared, for example, to the govts of the UK and France at the time (and even now). Over time, however, the power of the central govt has grown in response to the needs of the nation.
What is the difference between experiential understanding and conceptual understanding?
Conceptual understanding is of the intellect, & although it is a beginning in understanding being only of the intellect it is in itself incomplete. It does not always change your heart or actions. Experiential understnding speaks to us on a much deeper level. LOL! My experience has been that the many levels of experience have caused a change in Being for me. Concepts open the doors of the mind, but experience will change my heart & Being! Great Q! Many Blessings!
How can I stop procrastinating and concentrate on my study?
No study. No Procastination! That was too sarcastic, wasn't it? But yes, study well and keep yourself away from any such chaotic world. When you're in a state of building your own empire, you need not worry about its destruction. At first, be on the right track of building such and then think of at a latter stage if you're going wrong somewhere. Here, investing in you and your studies is the basic requirement towards your career and you shouldn't get affected what's being an obstacle in the same. All you need to worry about is how far you'll go and what mandatory changes you develop in yourself.Well, In my opinion, if you be in a different world of thoughts, it is merely more to your imagination and leads you altogetherly to a different nation- PROCASTINATION! So, limit yourself to this world and be on the right track.Procastination is due to overthinking. So, switch off this mode and think of only that much which is a requisite. Basically ,you ought to keep on revising and retain the knowledge that you need to own. Keep this habit and you'll sore higher. No matter what, who comes into your life, who goes out, you have no control over all this. But definitely you've got a control on your own life. You have to live it on your own terms and conditions, others would just be the support system.Hence, while studying, you ought to have faith in Yourself and keep reminding yourself that “ You'll get it on one fine day and at the very moment which shall be yours” You have to practice hard every now and then, all because it takes a lot and it's not an easy journey. It is difficult but surely achievable. So,treat your mind well and it shall do the same for you.Thank you!
