Do it to that new best
Chapter 10 of 76
Living a life of improvement entails self-examination. You need to have the courage to look at yourself, and improve what you see.
Any effort you put in honestly improving your life will benefit you. The thing about improving yourself is that it never ends. My best effort becomes one of my worst, as soon as I make another effort.
If I try my best each time, I get to be the best that I have ever been. The moment I try again, I create a new best for myself. So I don’t do anything to the best of my ability alone, but to that new best, each time.
I live a continuously progressive life with this mentality. I wake up in the morning, knowing that I am better than when I woke up yesterday; and I will go to sleep even better. Multiply this into months and years, and you will have a life of progress.
