Positive patience

Faya, the Shape of Willpower, and Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, combined their efforts to write a lecture about positive patience.

The Seven Shapes often had to work together in order to write for One Daily Tale.

Indeed, the combination of their strengths was what led to the discovery of how the StarDust that lies within each Esper works.

Faya, and the Espers of Fire, were not known for their patience. On the contrary, they had the reputation of often acting first, which is why Faya asked Vati for her cooperation on this lesson.

“As the Element of Fire, we sometimes have a tendency to rush into things. This is when our friends of the Element of Water can help us clear our minds a bit and take more time to be patient, which often leads to positive results,” said Faya.

“Balance is key, and while acting is necessary for things to progress, sometimes the best action is actually not to act,” continued Vati.

“By reminding yourself of Atma, the Shape of Balance, it becomes easier to grow accustomed to this positive patience,” concluded Faya.

    Take the Time

    When was the last time you took a moment just for yourself—not doing anything, just a few minutes of simply being? I know that most of you will reply: “I don’t have time to do that.” Unfortunately, if you don’t have time for yourself, even just a few minutes a day, no one else can

    The Brain

    Cha Cha thought that, theoretically, on Earth, even though the Seven Shapes are unknown to everyone, the human brain might be what a potential StarDust looks like! Feeding and exercising our body indirectly powers our brain, and the better the source of energy—what we eat—the better our brain functions. Learning, of course, but also interacting
