Today we’re giving you another positive thought 
in continue with last week’s 
“ The Power of GENTLENESS.”

命令形

People who polish their hearts and actions 
don’t bring pain to others.

They don’t inflict pain on themselves as well.

Imagine you’ve married the perfect Mr. or Ms. Right.

And you get to live with him or her 
for the rest of your life.

On the contrary, if you’ve married 
the perfect Mr. Wrong or Ms. Wong.

Well, welcome to agony for the rest of your life.

It follows you day and night, wherever you go,

even when you get up in the middle of the night 
just to take a leak.

So having a gentle heart is like having a 24-7, 
always there for you friend.

Yes! You’re the man! Keep that chin up high!

Having an unpolished heart, 
on the other hand, is kind of like

Man look at you! You’re a piece of junk you know!

So now you think you’re somebody! You yell out me!

Last week we talked about 
the power of having a gentle heart.

How gentle hearts change, shape,
and bring impact to the world.

Today we’re gonna get practical and see HOW

Making our hearts as soft as skin, 
as smooth and gentle as water.

First of all, no one can polish your heart for you. 
YOU have to put in the effort yourself.

Second, it’s not a one-time, once-and-for-all task.

You have to do it with intention 
every single day of your life.

Your current personality wasn’t built in one day either.

So it makes sense that it’ll take you the equivalent time or even more time to reshape it.

you have to get started with what it’s made up of.

It’s easy to get carried away with
 what’s going on in our minds.

So whenever something morally-incorrect or something that just goes against your conscience occurs in mind,

Distract yourselves with 
better thoughts or better things.

It takes time, but if you keep on with the effort,

[Well, guess like I’ll just have less junk food.]

Number two, “How do you polish your actions?”

So when you’ve arranged the mind, 
it’s much easier to manage the latter.

when you find yourself in the middle of, 
or at the start of doing something wrong,

Darn it, Joseph! Get your own Doritos for God sake!

You see, no matter if it’s in your head or in your actions,

it’s always a matter of intentional effort.

But as we said, it takes time and a lot of hard work.

Like running water smoothing out pebbles in the river.

You can’t just go to the gym once and expect yourself to become John Cena overnight.

the more you work on it the easier it’ll get

Think gently, speak gently, act gently for 
a hundred times, a thousand times.

in time you will find yourself savoring
 a totally different level of joy.
