Do it one better
+++++++++++++++++++<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accept what is, accept what comes. Then do it one better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’re not going to fix all that’s wrong in the world. Yet you can constantly improve yourself and many of the things around you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If everything was already perfect you’d have nothing useful to do. Embrace the imperfection along with the good work it calls you to take on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Proceed under whatever conditions exist. Discover that each day offers plenty of opportunities to thrive, to experience fulfillment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Present yourself as a willing participant in each moment as it unfolds. Notice your eagerness to do the good you can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you encounter ups or downs, joys or disappointments, always be willing and able to respond in a positive manner. Take what is, and do it one better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
