RHYTHMIC EFFORTS

Our lives may appear to us more meaningful if we learn to make rhythmic efforts instead of hectic efforts. While we should not do less than what we can do, we must not do more than what we can do. If we do less than what we can do, we carry a self-image of being lazy. If we fail while trying to do more than our ability, we develop a sense of inadequacy in us; but if we succeed, we become proud of ourselves and begin to falter. The major part of our efforts must not be for our own benefit, they must be for the benefit of those who are deprived of what must be rightfully due to them. If we streamline our efforts as aforesaid, we may easily learn to make rhythmic efforts.
