First Change Yourself
Give to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
The world is not a perfect place, and we are here to perfect the society around us. When we see people around us behaving not so perfectly, we blame them, complain about them or criticize them. Sometimes, we label them that they are not good. However, this approach is not going to make any difference. We will end up advocating the principle of helplessness.
If you think for a while, you will understand that we can make a difference in our own way to redeem the society. We can give the world the best we have and `enroll' people whom we know into this movement. If we do this honestly and sincerely, this `redemption movement' will gain momentum. Over a period of time, we will see more people becoming proactive and taking the first step towards making their contribution.
This is how any movement starts. Whatever you do, resolve today to do it in the best way. Ask yourself whether you can improve your performance and sincerely implement. Share this idea with at least five persons today. Let those five people bring another five people and allow this movement to catch on.
Don't try to change the world. First change yourself and some people who are very near to you. Do this sincerely and set aside a time frame everyday to this important society-building portfolio and see the result over a period of time. You will notice that what goes around will come around!
