What I do everyday to be aware of me

00:00:01.997 --> 00:00:07.414
I think the effectiveness of a person
2
00:00:07.439 --> 00:00:10.765
is something tested every day.
3
00:00:12.227 --> 00:00:16.112
And if you don't succeed in this test,
4
00:00:16.145 --> 00:00:18.745
then you lose your effectiveness.
5
00:00:20.402 --> 00:00:25.456
And so it's a complete,
it's a continuous struggle every day
6
00:00:25.481 --> 00:00:31.370
to be up to this task or to this call
7
00:00:33.363 --> 00:00:38.501
to bring change you know to our
countries, our societies, our world.
8
00:00:39.369 --> 00:00:44.922
And very often very often
you will have to win this test
9
00:00:44.947 --> 00:00:48.470
or to succeed in this test
in the very small things
10
00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:52.306
you have to do every day
in your family,
11
00:00:52.710 --> 00:00:56.760
in your work, in the wider society.
12
00:00:57.510 --> 00:01:03.899
So, and I feel today the thing
which empowered us,
13
00:01:03.924 --> 00:01:07.382
the thing which
empowers us to do that
14
00:01:07.545 --> 00:01:11.333
for me has been this time of quiet
15
00:01:11.481 --> 00:01:15.310
which I have been faithful to
16
00:01:16.555 --> 00:01:19.348
let's say half an hour or 45 minutes
17
00:01:19.348 --> 00:01:26.986
or even one hour every day
of just going back to my self
18
00:01:29.085 --> 00:01:34.397
as a believer, going back to my scriptures and writing down.
19
00:01:34.422 --> 00:01:37.449
What I do is to write down you
know the thoughts that come to me
20
00:01:37.474 --> 00:01:41.041
and especially those thoughts
21
00:01:41.066 --> 00:01:45.593
which sometimes are disturbing
22
00:01:45.618 --> 00:01:48.311
you know like say sorry
to that person
23
00:01:48.607 --> 00:01:55.707
or someone is expecting you
rightly to do something for him.
24
00:01:55.703 --> 00:01:57.897
You haven't done it
you know so do it.
25
00:01:59.066 --> 00:02:03.264
And of course
this is a personal
26
00:02:04.061 --> 00:02:08.483
what you call it,
a personal thing to do.
27
00:02:08.508 --> 00:02:13.046
But we as friends also
meet to say once a week
28
00:02:13.071 --> 00:02:14.680
or once every two weeks
29
00:02:14.705 --> 00:02:17.477
we meet together and have
a quiet time together
30
00:02:17.502 --> 00:02:20.321
and then share our lives
together, you see.
31
00:02:20.346 --> 00:02:23.555
And in this way we
encourage each other.
32
00:02:27.882 --> 00:02:30.899
Yes. Yes. We come back to Love you know.
33
00:02:30.924 --> 00:02:35.547
We come back to love
which is a tough thing.
34
00:02:36.403 --> 00:02:39.790
It's not a question
of sense of feelings.
35
00:02:39.790 --> 00:02:41.790
It's a question of will.
36
00:02:42.048 --> 00:02:47.188
Love really is not love until
it moves your will.
37
00:02:47.373 --> 00:02:51.024
And we say when it moves your
will then it means action.
