How to Apply This
-
Think of the saddest and the happiest moments of your life
Try to find a connection between sorrow and joy. Ask yourself whether you can feel sorrow and joy simultaneously. -
Recognize your vices
Consider whether a person can be truly good without acknowledging their vices. -
Think of a goal you have accomplished
Ask yourself whether you were fulfilled when that happened. Also, ask yourself whether you did something unjust in order to achieve that particular goal. -
