Each time before you decide to take action on an idea, make sure that what you think the good thing to do is "really" good. Experience tells us that not all we thought as good were truly good. Acting on things by impulse ensures that what only apparently was good got assumed to be good, and the outcome becomes a point of regret for long stretches into the future.
Most people believe that once people gain their freedom from oppressors, they became free. History shows that's not necessarily true. Our oppressors are not outside us but within us--pride, fear, covetousness... These sinful vices keep people in bondage using chains that no amount of uprising can break.
