I’m writing this post in reflection of @VoiceofEnki’s post Tolerance and Leniency.
It occurred to me that to find solutions we use different ways to get that final outcome. However as well all know there is a wrong and right way to go about things. When we improve our speech to a proper vernacular that is more civil that’s attributed to what we attain, which is civility and overall: knowledge. However in that same manner we can use that knowledge incorrectly. This one example. Simple but applies in our lives with most things if not all.
When we have argued over trivial matters( @Shadowcat made a good point about it as such in another post), we are setting a bar of what the world sees. Argument is for some parts unnecessary. There are times to do so, and there is times not to. We are SS, yet some have gained that insight, and improved upon how they approach things amongst the forums, and others are still placating that they must say things because “I’m an SS”, or “Satan doesn’t advocate weakness, so let me go off and rage.”
This is a childish mentality that leads one nowhere but down. Improvement is not attained it is gained with the proper execution of one’s will to be better than what they were.
So in understanding this, argument is necessary for when it is necessary. Pick the battles and ask yourself if it’s necessary. If it isn’t, then seek to let it be. If it is, then take a stand but with respect to those you speak to. Yes we come from different backgrounds, but that doesn’t mean we slacken our civility.
Now in regards to stagnation, I’m pretty sure we’ve all hit a that plateau sooner or later. This is normal. HP HoodedCobra has explained this, but reiteration is always good as a reminder. Some of us get complacent and we lose the energy that we had once again. It can be difficult but we do have knowledge given to us.
How Lord Khepu would tell me is this: “If you truly stagnate, that is fine to see it. But there will be more effort to pull yourself out of it. Therefore don’t give way and fall off. If you can’t go fully every day, you must do something even little. This is what you would refer to as Kaizen.”
When I heard the word I looked it up, it has a multitude of others giving its meaning in their own words but the simplicity is there. It means improvement. Besides going full 100% at first, start with 1%. Then as time progresses you increase that percent up again, and then do it again.
Seeing ourselves stagnate is like us finally looking back at the path we made, but we must then look forward to the path ahead of us even if it takes us one step at a time. That is the effort and it will be hard. But not done by anything is worthless to us. Doing something that will impact us as we move forward again is more beneficial and will mean a lot to us in the endgame of our spiritual and material lives.
Hail Satan
Hail Lord Khepu!
