Diligence

Diligence: one of the Seven Heavenly Virtues

A zealous and careful nature in one's actions and work; decisive work ethic, the capability of not giving up. Budgeting one's time; monitoring one's own activities to guard against laziness. Upholding one's convictions at all times, especially when no one else is watching (integrity).


The vice of Sloth: one of the Seven Deadly Sins



It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
