How does adding vectors work?

What happens when vectors are not aligned?

What happens when vectors are aligned?

What does this little math lesson tell us about Scouting and life?

First lesson; having a buddy matters. Can help you to amplify your own direction. As you select friends in life, they can help amplify your own vector.

Second, stress is frequently a result of feeling that different vectors in life are pulling against each other. Some things must be done, but as you get more control of your own life, better aligning your values and efforts generally leads to less stress.

Third, a vector that has enough magnitude to last a lifetime, such as best friend or a significant other, will have a significant bearing on the direction of your life. It can amplify you or move you off your own path.

In summary, the buddy system isn’t just for restroom breaks. It’s a lifelong habit that can multiply your life.
