THE WORLD OF THE SPIRIT
Versão para cópia
BE WELL ADVISED
Learn to admonish yourself before life admonishes you.
If your problem is overeating put this written inscription on the table before your eyes:
— I must moderate my appetite.
If your struggle is against laziness, put this notice before your eyes:
— I must work honestly.
If your inquietude stems from systematic irritation, display this notice in your home for constant observation:
— I must control my emotions.
If your difficulty stems from deep-rooted vices, carry with you a card bearing this brief reminder:
— I must reform myself.
If your difficulty is sexual tension, keep this warning in your thoughts constantly:
— I must control my impulses.
If your weak point is speaking without thinking, put up this reminder where you will see it frequently:
— I must speak charitably.
Don’t believe in unconditional liberty. Every right is subordinate to a given right. No one can abuse it with impunity.
Note life’s systems of punishment how they function spontaneously.
Sicknesses accompany excesses. . .
Obsessions go hand in hand with imbalances. . .
Jails isolate delinquency. . .
Expiatory reincarnations accompany follies. . .
Let us correct ourselves before the world corrects us.
Wee all know how to proclaim the merits of positive thinking, but there is no positive thinking for good without upright thinking.
Time is that tireless director which teaches each of us today, tomorrow and forever that no one can really trifle with life.
André Luiz
