The work and functions of the mind:
Choice - to do and think right
Refusal - of temptation
Yearning - to be better
Repulsion - of negativity, of bad influences, of what isn't true
Preparation - for what lies ahead or whatever may happen
Purpose - our guiding principle and highest priority
Assent - to be free of deception about what's inside and outside our control
everything else as corruption.
