Machiavelli discusses the relationship between cruelty, compassion, and the behavior of an effective prince. He returns to Cesare Borgia as an example of effective behavior. Cesare, states Machiavelli, ruled a prosperous and stable domain despite a reputation for cruelty.
An effective prince must try to gain a reputation for compassion but also be willing to be cruel when the stability of his domain calls for it. However, even when a situation requires cruelty, Machiavelli warns that the prince should not act too quickly. Even if a prince has a reputation for cruelty, Machiavelli claims that this will not lead to his downfall.
Whereas being cruel to the people is acceptable if it cannot be avoided, Machiavelli claims that being cruel as a military leader is indispensable. Being lenient toward soldiers can lead only to bad consequences, according to Machiavelli. To illustrate this, he gives the contrasting examples of the famous Carthaginian general Hannibal and the famous Roman general Scipio Africanus. Hannibal's troops endured great hardship under his command because they knew to disobey him meant death. In contrast, Scipio's armies disobeyed and mutinied because they knew that he was hesitant to punish them.

If you're talking about an outline for a paper, you can add in little notes and thoughts that come to you while you're writing it. I know an outline's only supposed to be a rough plan without lots of detail, but if you have a really great idea for your wording or an example to use or something, you can totally add that in. If you're just talking about a study sheet, you can do the same thing: add in little mnemonic devices that help you remember the information. It can be anything. Like, if the reading made you think of something from your own life, write that down, it may help you retain the information.
Obviously, don't waste a lot of time with this, but the formatting can really help. Highlighting the headings and making sure to include enough space for readabilty is important.
I'm not really an expert, but I hope I could help!

There are only seven coordinating conjunctions. Remember the terms FAN BOYS in relation to coordinating conjunctions.

3) connecting three or more items in a series
