Forum:Lightsworn Milling Effect question

In a lightsworn deck when cards such as "Michael, The arch-Lightsworn" are played are the effects at the bottom "During each of your end phases; send the top 3 cards of your deck to the graveyard."

Is this an effect that only activates when you active one of the other effects on the card? or every turn that the card is face up on the field?

Basically if Michael, The arch-Lightsworn is played do you have to apply the milling effect regardless of if you choose to use one of the effects or not?
