      - Laissez-Faire (Permissive)- A policy of letting people do as they please; permissive. This results in a discontented, bored, and nonproductive group.. The leader responds to requests.
- - - - An important part of this principle is learning by faith. I think that people forget that. I'm glad Elder Bednar emphasized this.
        
        Learning by faith opens the pathway into the heart.
    - - Ultimately the content of a message and the witness of the Holy Ghost penetrate into the heart only if a receiver allows them to enter.
    - - Faith is the assurance of things hoped for which are true
      - Faith as the evidence of things not seen
      - Faith as the principle of action in all intelligent beings
    - - True faith is focused in and on the Lord Jesus Christ and always leads to action. Faith as the principle of action.
        
        It's central to the process of learning and applying spiritual truth.
        
        Students need to be willing to learn and allow the teacher to teach them. They need to have an open heart and mind to learn.

      - With proper invitation, the Holy Ghost can enter into a learner's heart.
      - We should become and remain worthy to have the companionship of the Holy Ghost so the Lord can operate through Him.
    - - The tuition of diligence and learning by faith must be paid to obtain and personally "own" such knowledge.
    - - The individual and collective exercise of faith in the Savior invites instruction and strength from the Spirit of the Lord.
  - - - The leaven of true leadership cannot lift others unless we are with and serve those to be led.
    - - A great leader listens not only to others, but also to his conscience and to the promptings of God.
      - He loved His followers
      - We can show our love for others even when we are called upon to correct them.
        
        We need to be able to look deeply enough into the lives of others to see the basic causes for their failures and shortcomings.
    - - Great leaders focus on the needs of others and their desires. They look outwardly instead of inwardly.
        
        Jesus believed in His followers, not alone for what they were, but for the possibilities they had to become.
        
        A good leader will remember he is accountable to God as well as to those he leads.
      - Jesus taught us that we are accountable not only for our actions but also for our thoughts.
