George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff taught that human beings are only partially developed and that consciousness, conscience and will are not given to us freely, but must be acquired by intentional efforts. His system of self-development calls for the application in daily life of a specific method of “Work on oneself.” Gurdjieff emphasized the need for undertaking this Work with others who share a common aim.
Honestly, it seems that the opportunity to make a real effort, is something earned.
Firstly, one has to develop the insight to be aware enough to recognize that an effort can be made.
Secondly, one has to be able to control the machine.
Thirdly, strive for the highest in onself and be.
