Abstract

All personal disorganization is a sign of lack of preparedness in social interest. Individual psychology has shown the individual as a whole, expressing his special "style of life" as a unit related to the problems of social contact, occupation, and love and marriage. Human life expresses itself in movement and direction toward a successful solution of outer and inner confrontations. The "style of life" of an individual is wholly accomplished in the child at an early age. Failures never deteriorate in their style; the degree of social interest, ability, and co-operation and contribution are never diminished. There are two ways of decreasing failures among individuals: one is by diminishing the burden and the confrontations put upon the individual and the masses; the other is by creating a new institution for increasing the social interest during the time of childhood. Our aim should be to make the schools the center of social progress.
