[Music] okay good morning everybody hope everybody's well happy tuesday hope everyone's having an incredible day we're talking about the concept of actions leading to actions what that means how it works where we left off yesterday was this idea about really what we're after is not the impact that we have on other people really what we're after is the internal growth into ourselves so i want to delve a little bit further into that because i think it's an important concept because it drives us so a person has a soul well let's just delve into this together let's just like settle in and like go a little deep with god's help mean you have a soul now what satisfies the soul is very different than what satisfies the body the soul isn't satisfied with physical and material stuff unless it's being used for spiritual reasons right everything in this world that's material and physical can be used for something deeper or it could be used for something much more on the surface and that's what happens you take things that are even the holiest and you can very easily make it mundane and ruin it look what's going on with the world today and you know the relation between a man and a woman relationship between a husband and a wife relation between a parent and child the relationship between um people the way this just look at relationships across the world and you can see just in your own mind the scale
