Making an effort - whatever the conditions
When there is nothing obliging them to respond, to make an effort, human beings tend to let themselves go. They need difficulties and trials, and then they rally and mobilize their energies to put the situation right. And when they have succeeded, that's it - they let themselves go again and fall back into laziness. Well, it's a mistake to adjust your behaviour to changes in the outside world. You should always keep on working, whatever else is happening, because work must always be your priority. Conditions improve, and difficulties work themselves out. That's all very well, but it's no reason for slowing down your activity. On the contrary, you should learn to use these conditions by devoting more time to working with your mind and building your inner being.
