JJ recipe for safety:

Safety = 2 way radio + safety alert + drink of water = SAFE PILOT

Cookie recipe for safety:

Intelligence, knowledge, common sense, reason, problem solving,
judgment, planning working under pressure, training, practice,
proficiency, continued learning, learning from mistakes, learning from
other’s mistakes, taking advice, taking criticism, piloting skills,
coordination, using proven procedures, situational awareness, grasp of
reality, self reliance, self preservation, self control, self respect,
knowing one's limitations, flying within one's limitations, a
conservative approach to flying, ego in check.

Cookie:
You appear to be out of line.
You need to get to know the posters, or, at least their past writings
and experiences.
Even if you disagree with them, study them and learn.
Your writings have given some of us the impression that your are a new
"hotshot" CFI with only the basics of experience and little real life
knowledge beyond studying.

Walk away from the computer keyboard, kick back, and take some of your
own advice:
continued learning, learning from mistakes, learning from
other’s mistakes, taking advice, taking criticism,

Go fly, teach, learn how to become a CFI, apply the rest of the values
you outline and actually learn how to approach the subject of
instruction, safety, and aviation.
In the mean time, educate yourself, with good and bad information from
the experience of those that have actually done what you are now trying
to experience.
