practically and sonsidering things as they really are.

do or achieve. I makes us rise above the ordinary or common aims or purposes. Idealism makes

us have the best standrads of character and behaviour before us. We try to have as perfact

a character as possible. Idealism helps us to progress socially and nationally according to

high national aims. Thus, it can take a country or nation to the greatest heights of progress

and glory.

Disadvantages of edealism: It can make us live in our dreams or in our imagination, far away

from life realities. We can become theoretical in our approach to our approach to our problems instead

of solving them directly. We can at times have wrong ideals. In their idealism, national leaders can

prepare their countries militarily to overpower other countries. This can gives rise to competition

resulting in destructive wars.
