Sow an act, and you reap a habit;
sow a habit, and you reap a character;
sow a character, and you reap a destiny.
It is important to be aware of every act you make, there is no small, no large, only action. These actions will become your habits. You need only repeat an action for a month for it to become a habit, this habit with solidify into you character and this will lead you to your destiny.
Acts of kindness, selflessness, fairness and good intention will lead to a high self esteem and the Light Side of the Force.
Acts of fear, selfishness, anger and resentment will lead to low self esteem and the Dark Side of the Force.
To be present means to be aware of your thoughts and this is of paramount importance in Jedi training. Be present and you will have a choice about which action next to take. Not to be present is to act without question, to be compulsive. You mind will wander to the light and dark side at the beginning of your path as a Jedi, this is okay and normal. Training in awareness will allow you to make wiser choices about your actions and form the habits your wish and break the habits you no longer find useful or that are based in fear. The greater your awareness the stronger the Light Side of the Force can guide your destiny.
