It is thus the universal as opposed to the specific determinateness of the work performed; it can therefore compare one kind of work with another, and can thence apprehend individualities themselves as different; it can, e.g. regard an individual who is of wider compass in his work as possessing stronger energy of will or a richer nature, i.e. a nature whose original constitution (Bestimmtheit) is less limited; another again as a weaker and a poorer nature.
Baina kontzientzia horren aurrean determinatzen da determinatutasuna oro har negatibotasun gisa, egite gisa, bere baitan duen hori bezala; beraz, orokor-dena da emaitzaren determinatutasun haren aurrean, beste emaitzekin alde ra dezake eta hortik abiatuta indibidualtasunak berak ezberdin gisa jaso; bere lanean gehiago lortzen duen indibiduoa nahimenaren energia handiago gisa edo natura aberatsago gisa ikus dezake, hau da, bere jatorrizko determinatutasuna gutxiago murriztua duena; beste bat, aitzitik, izaera ahulago eta behartsuago gisa ikus dezake.
