    I would have learned so much better in high school if my teachers shouted the whole lesson like this guy does

    A little rushed, perhaps is nice to slow down enjoy the language and words, mull thoughts -

    I understand your energy in the video, but it’s a bit too loud to concentrate on what you are teaching. Perhaps you might consider lowering the volume level or getting further away from the mic and speaking slower and calmly. This will get the message across smoothly for all your viewers. I hope my constructive criticism doesn't offend you. I am simply speaking from a viewer's point of view and not at all mean to insult your translation of the dialogue. As I still find it valuable and helpful. I really appreciate the help you provided for me today.

      Because the they teach the noblest thoughts, and compassionate ways of thinking which are still relevant!. Aristotle's ethics, or study of character, is built around the premise that people should achieve an excellent character.
      Aristotle emphasized the practical importance of developing excellence (virtue) of character, as the way to achieve what is finally more important, excellent conduct. As Aristotle argues in Book II of the Nicomachean Ethics, the man who possesses character excellence will tend to do the right thing, at the right time, and in the right way. Bravery, and the correct regulation of one's bodily appetites, are examples of character excellence or virtue. So acting bravely and acting temperately are examples of excellent activities. The highest aims are living well, and eudaimonia - a Greek word often translated as well-being, happiness or "human flourishing"
      Like many ethicists, Aristotle regards excellent activity as pleasurable for the man of virtue. For example, Aristotle thinks that the man whose appetites are in the correct order actually takes pleasure in acting moderately.
      Still good advice in any age. and probably replicated across successful cultures from confucius, mencius to buddha. The cultivation of a person to become everything they can be.
