Where is your focus!

It is better to improve ourselves than to put our energy in improving others because most of it might get wasted. This is not only the case with adults but also with children. Children are more likely to be better human beings if they have good role models rather than a bunch of great instructions but no example to follow.

So, how do we improve? There is no one answer for all. One has to reflect and introspect to find answers for their own-self. I can talk about myself. I need to find all the places where I am wrong or need correction. However, just looking at negatives is not helpful. I must also focus on my strengths and positive qualities. Then I need to find ways to reduce the negatives and increase the positives. I can do it through faith, self-determination and with the help of my friends and family. I will only be successful if my focus is on improving myself rather than correcting others otherwise I will miss out on a great opportunity of becoming a better human being!
