Virtue 3: Order
Let all your things have their places; let each part of your business have its time.
Order can be a command, direction or instruction.
Order can be the disposition of things following one another in space or time, in succession or sequence. The opposite of this would be chaos and disorganization.
To relieve ourselves of chaos and disorder we must keep things simple and organized. In turn we will live a fuller life. All things should have their place. Physical things such as your keys should hang by the door on a hook.
Emotional things, such as reactions to anger, hurt and pain, also have a place and time. Per the second virtue we have learnt this to avoid trifling conversation, or simply not to speak at all.
We need to make choices on the things we can control. This makes things easier and less resistant to our efforts. If we make the choices and changes that may come with it in the present moment, you will restore balance in your life. Find the time and the place for all things.
