He had been at his post only a few days when he began to talk of the &#8220;pleasure trips&#8221; he was going to have now he had come to that place. He was discharged at the end of a month for negligence and incompetence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As two objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time, so the mind that is occupied with pleasure cannot also be concentrated upon the perfect <a href=\"https:\/\/motivemeaning.com\/performance-appraisal-5-things-to-consider\/\" data-schema-attribute=\"about\">performance<\/a> of duty. Pleasure has its own place and time, but its consideration should not be allowed to enter the mind during those hours which should be devoted to duty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those who, while engaged in their worldly task, are continually dwelling upon anticipated pleasures, cannot do otherwise than bungle through their work, or even neglect it when their pleasure seems to be at stake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s Thoroughness really like?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Thoroughness is completeness, perfection; it means doing a thing so well that there is nothing left to be desired; it means doing one&#8217;s work, if not better than anyone else can do it, at least not worse than the best that others do. It means the exercise of much thought, the putting forth of great energy, the persistent application of the mind to its task, the cultivation of patience, perseverance, and a high sense of duty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An ancient teacher said, &#8220;If anything has to be done, let a man do it, let him attack it vigorously&#8221;; and another teacher said, &#8220;Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might.&#8221; He who lacks thoroughness in his worldly duties, will also lack the same quality in spiritual things. He will not improve his character; will be weak and half-hearted in his religion, and will not accomplish any good and useful end. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The man who keeps one eye on worldly pleasure and the other on religion, and who thinks he can have the advantage of both conditions, will not be thorough either in his pleasure seeking or his religion, but will make a sorry business of both. It is better to be a whole-souled worldling than a half-hearted religionist; better to give the entire mind to a lower thing than half of it to a higher. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is preferable to be thorough, even if it be in a bad or selfish direction, rather than inefficient and squeamish in good directions, for thoroughness leads more rapidly to the <a href=\"https:\/\/support.centreforelites.com\/en\/definition-of-growth-and-development\/\">development<\/a> of character and the acquisition of wisdom; it accelerates progress and unfoldment; and while it leads the bad to something better, it spurs the good to higher and ever higher heights of usefulness and power.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch more videos like this at: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/InEdMotivation?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/InEdMotivation?sub_confirmation=1<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The thoroughness and Conscientiousness personality is a motivational story adopted from Mastery of Destiny, narrated in this video: My Story [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1287,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"wds_primary_category":50,"footnotes":""},"categories":[50],"tags":[174,173],"class_list":["post-1285","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-motivation","tag-inspirational-story","tag-motivational-story"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/support.centreforelites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/pexels-vie-studio-7005412-1024x683-1.jpg?fit=1024%2C683&ssl=1","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":948,"url":"https:\/\/support.centreforelites.com\/en\/achievement-motivation-theory-need-for-achievement\/","url_meta":{"origin":1285,"position":0},"title":"ACHIEVEMENT MOTIVATION THEORY OR NEED FOR ACHIEVEMENT","author":"centreforelites","date":"November 2, 2022","format":false,"excerpt":"David McClelland advanced an achievement motivation theory which argues that some people are motivated by the \"need for achievement\" (n-ach).
