00:00The chapter, there is one sentence, sir, to know yourself, don't look at what you celebrate, look at what you
00:05tolerate.
00:06So it hit me because that is where I understood that something that we are tolerating is something that is
00:12the real value that we attach to.
00:14But so practice my case, and I am still confused. How do I look at it, sir?
00:19This will tell you of where your weaknesses and greeds are, correct?
00:27One does not tolerate anything or anybody without reason, and the reason is a weak, kind of sticky self-interest.
00:42First of all, it is weak, so it will be dominated.
00:46Secondly, it is sticky, so it is difficult to get rid of.
00:51So that is where you get to know yourself, where you are dominated, pushed, where you know there is something
01:01wrong, and still you can't push it aside.
01:08Rebellion becomes a very difficult thing.
01:15How do I find it, sir?
01:17I am trying to spot, I am trying to look at myself.
01:20See, it is a calculation one makes inwardly.
01:24One says, if I am tolerating X, then I am protecting Y, and Y is greater than X, so the
01:34deal is profitable, right?
01:36You will have to see the real worth of Y, and you will have to see whether Y is something
01:48whose value you have just casually accepted, or have you really investigated the real value of Y?
01:59That's why Y really holds the value in your accord to it, and if it doesn't, then Y is greater
02:04than X no longer holds.
02:06Correct.
02:07And then you can scrap the deal, and then you just need not tolerate any offer.
