Capt Bligh on loyalty and maintaining obedience
Assume you need a man to go aloft in a gale and the sailor is a typical wife beater, drunkard with no respect for authority in fact his whole life is dedicated to disrespect for authority. How do you do it. What single word
describes the process of getting him aloft to adjust the sails with him knowing if he slips on the icy shrouds he with perish instantly?
FEAR !
Fear of what you are going to do to him,
Fear so vivid in his mind he fears it more than sudden death. I am not advocating cruelty or ********* with out a purpose.
Cruelty with a purpose is not cruelty—Its Efficiency.
A man will not disobey you when he see’s a mates backbone laid bear.
And the whiteness of his ribs staring back. And he see’s the flesh jump and the whistle of the whip.
He will remember that for the rest of his life.
