4 Simple Steps To Being a Better Person

Ok you may be saying "how can there be just 4 steps"? Most seemingly complicated issues can be broken to a short list of root causes. Change begins from within. Make a decision, a resolution, a commitment, to be a better person from this moment onward.

What do I mean by "better"?

Everyone has heard of the Golden Rule, but there is an even greater maxim that was given, and I call it the Platinum Rule:

"Love one another as I have loved you".

That bold challenge to love can be frightening and overwhelming. Try the following suggestions on for size. Try them, put them into practice before you scoff at them.

  1. Find a spiritual hero
  2. Ask what would my hero do in this situation?
  3. Act like your hero even it is far outside your comfort zone
  4. Periodically ask yourself is there a better hero I should emulate?

As you work your way through this the work becomes deeper, perhaps more difficult, but not fundamentally different.

We are all here to love. Find a spiritual hero whose actions you can choose to emulate. Be the better person today. You can do it.
