“Energetic, alert, pure in deed, careful in action, self-controlled, living in accord with truth, the vigilant one will rise in repute.”
Energy – check
Alertness – check
Pure in deed – eh
Careful in Action – tryin’
Self-Controlled – about 80%, not too bad
Living in Accord with Truth – uh….
Rising in Repute – priceless
Where do you fall with each of these things? No, this isn’t about getting big name recognition. This is about doing the right things and things being right because of them. I’m trying my best, though living in accord with truth is hard. I mean, how to know what’s always true?
What do you think? What’s the hardest one on here? Have any advice for how to perservere?
