Man's largest limitation is self imposed. And is such a heavy chain that gives place to a self sentence. The only cause of this misfortune is apathy,  boredom and lack of a responsible work. Every being posses wonderful talents. Nevertheless, when these talents are not cultivated, what is left is confusion and disgrace.

What is the reason that man does not have success?

The explanation is hard and simple: Because he is hoping to get everything without doing any effort. One of the worse spiritual diseases is lack of interest and idleness, which are terrible and powerful destroyers of all good.

Who can harvest what he did not plant?  Who can gather what he did not cultivated? What is the reason that man chains himself to misery? Because, in principle he has been negligent, he has abandoned his responsibility and he has delegated in others. That is the reason that he has lost everything. But, we are not only referring to the strictly material, but to the essentially spiritual.
The misery and poverty of man, are like demons who corrupt and destroy. Where can we find effort, compassion, commitment, service, wisdom? In fact, we will not find anything. When there is no work, great care and effort, what can be reclaimed? What can be asked? Only that disgrace turns into total chaos.

What is the solution?

A life committed in a more realistic way, where we find the need to produce, to give our best.

Can a father or a mother abandon his hungry child? There are many kind of hunger. But the spiritual hunger is the largest disgrace because it brings weakness and susceptibility that later on will bring man to the denial of peace and love. We can't confuse the term "poor in spirit" which clearly means-and is necessary to clarify-that a man does not have riches by himself, but that his riches are found in God. And this, of course, is absolutely true, correct and transcendental. But when we talk about the "heaven of bronze," we are referring to a lack of perspective in life. It is like watching a stranger or even a loved one without doing anything. We simply become passive in such absurd way and at the same time, we pretend to have everything, without giving anything in return.  This is not possible and is not right. The whole humanity must participate with a healthy interest to develop. God has given us many abilities, and these are given not to be hidden, not to be chained, but to mature, refine, develop, preserve them with the objective of given glory to His Name. And truly foment in our heart and actions, the good that is correct, proper, intelligent, that has order and is practical. Otherwise, our world will lack what is most elemental.

We must develop our consciousness and turn it into a good work, otherwise we will be sorry.

When we share the capacity that God has given us, we are glorifying Him.

If we don't have solidarity, we are an element that helps evil to extend.  A good person, treasures dedication and effort. Becomes he is committed to the whole world in order not to be a burden but rather, to develop with a sense of energy and positive dynamism. Poor is the man who thinking that he is astute, avoids effort and does not realize that what he really is doing, is a self denial of life. Let's pray not to avoid effort and work, but let's pray that the effort and work give fruits of peace, love and prosperity.
