[9] A man who is in a situation to live simply and<br \/>\nwhose nature permits him to enjoy the freedom that comes from not being attached<br \/>\nto material things and the worldly life, nevertheless abandons such a tranquil<br \/>\nexistence and turns with desire and envy to look upon those who are better off<br \/>\nthan he is in their material circumstances. Whereas those persons previously<br \/>\nhad some measure of respect for his simplicity and his choice of moderation,<br \/>\nhis lowering himself from his former state of tranquility only produces their<br \/>\ndisgust and derogation. What was previously respectable has been turned into<br \/>\nthe weak grasping after something undeserved. This turn toward inferior<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/08\/good-morning_16.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sentiments<\/a> can produce nothing but failure. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>2. [6] By nature, every man is an independent entity,<br \/>\nattending to his personal needs, making decisions that affect himself<br \/>\npersonally, and making plans for his own continued existence. Under certain<br \/>\ncircumstances, when he is unable to look after those things for himself, his<br \/>\nfamily or the community or those with a duty to take care of people who cannot<br \/>\ncare for themselves, step in and assist the man. If, on the other hand, the man<br \/>\nis capable of taking care of himself, but refuses to do so out of indolence and<br \/>\ninstead relies on the kindness of others to perform that function, he puts<br \/>\nhimself in an awkward, dependent position and he dishonors his standing as a<br \/>\nresponsible human being. He loses his self-respect and also the respect of<br \/>\nothers. If he persists in this, he will enter upon a path of decline, leading<br \/>\nto unhappiness and misfortune. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>3. [6] The man who wastes himself on trivialities will find<br \/>\nhimself overcome with dissatisfaction, because he fails to fill his life with<br \/>\nthe things that nourish the spirit. He turns away from doing things that enrich<br \/>\nthe lives of others, or from working on things that enrich his own life, and<br \/>\ninstead devotes himself to amusements and diversions that have no substance.<br \/>\nWhile such things pass the time and may bring momentary pleasure, they provide<br \/>\nnothing that enables the man to connect to his fellow man in a significant way.<br \/>\nHe contributes nothing that is beneficial to others, and he does nothing that<br \/>\nwould make himself a more capable person. Instead he goes from one form of<br \/>\npleasure to another, foolishly thinking that his inner needs will be satisfied<br \/>\nby such emptiness. Every man should enjoy a short respite from his labors now<br \/>\nand then, and indulge in some form of relaxation that is pleasurable and<br \/>\nentertaining. But to make diversion the whole focus of one&#8217;s life will only<br \/>\nlead the man downhill. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>4. [6] A man in a responsible position has aims and goals<br \/>\nthat occupy his thoughts and energies. He enjoys what he is doing, and there<br \/>\nare big things he wishes to accomplish. But the enterprise that so engages his<br \/>\nattention is more than he can do alone, and he is always looking out for<br \/>\nhelpers who can contribute their knowledge, talents, or experiences to the<br \/>\neffort. He is like a hungry animal, scouring the neighborhood, always on the<br \/>\nlookout for someone who might know something or who can add something that<br \/>\nwould make the enterprise more successful. And when he finds someone, he goes<br \/>\nstraight for them, being his most convincing self in an effort to enlist their<br \/>\naid. There is nothing wrong with this. He is not doing it for himself or his<br \/>\nown glory, but for the work that he is promoting &#8212; a work that will be of<br \/>\nbenefit to the whole community. He is a good, hard-working man. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>5. [6] A man has the concept of a great work that he<br \/>\nrealizes should be done &#8212; a work that would contribute mightily to the<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/10\/good-morning-h-27.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nourishment<\/a> of mankind &#8212; but he is not capable of pulling it off himself. He<br \/>\nlacks the strength or the knowledge of the ability to do it. He only envisions<br \/>\nthe goal, but recognizes that it is a worthy one. Although he would like to be<br \/>\nthe leader of the enterprise, and launch out on his own, he is compelled to<br \/>\nconsult with and seek the assistance of another who has the required strengths,<br \/>\neven though this may not be fully recognized. If he works with and through this<br \/>\nmore capable man, the enterprise can be successful. But he must remain aware<br \/>\nthat he is not the one who has the necessary talent. A great work will not be accomplished,<br \/>\nhowever, if instead he is led by arrogance or a desire for recognition and<br \/>\nthrusts himself forward as the main force that is doing the job. To do that<br \/>\nwould cause the whole project to collapse and the great work to fail of<br \/>\naccomplishment. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>Top. [9] A truly great man has influence upon all those<br \/>\naround him, to their great benefit. As a great man, he is not consumed with<br \/>\nself-centered things such as pride or ambition, but is fully aware of the<br \/>\nenormous responsibility that he labors under, for he sees how his leadership is<br \/>\nan important part of the lives of these others.<o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p><b style=\"text-align: center;\">Credit |&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=sM2-qhOeK4M\" style=\"text-align: left;\">27.
