Achieving One’s Goals

When they had begun to reflect on how to rebuild Esperia on healthy foundations, the Seven Shapes had been confronted with many problems.
Thinking about a society living in peace and harmony as a whole is obviously not an easy task!

They had also quickly understood that the decisions they would make, even after consulting the Espers of each element, would often be contested by those who were not yet ready to turn the page, or by others who still did not understand the critical situation in which their existence on their planet stood.

“The first step is to clearly define the directions to reach,” began Vati, the Shape of Wisdom.

“The Five elements are already the areas to develop at the individual level,” continued Eklea, the Shape of Consciousness.

“We also need objectives at the level of groups of individuals, up to Esperia as a whole…” added Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy.

With clear common goals to reach, young Espers will find their own path more easily and will have more willpower to achieve them,” commented Faya, the Shape of Willpower.

“We have clearly understood that having precise goals and working toward them helps prevent despair despite difficulties, and helps maintain good mental health in situations that sometimes seem destined to fail,” commented Kenko, the Shape of Health.
