improvement

You cannot remedy anything by condemning it.

Then shift to intention. Not what I find missing in my life, but to what I absolutely intend to manifest and attract into my life...

Will you have the stamina and inspiration necessary to dream up bigger, better, more original sins and wilder, wetter, more interesting problems?  Do you realize how demanding it will be to turn yourself into a wildly disciplined, radically curious, fiercely tender, ironically sincere, ingeniously loving, aggressively sensitive, blasphemously reverent, lustfully compassionate master of rowdy bliss?

There's always room for improvement, you know--it's the biggest room in 
the house. 

Where there is movement, there is improvement.

Rise above the mediocrity.

There is no such thing as an insignificant improvement.

To change rules that are already in place takes time, energy, perseverance and a lot of hard work.  You only have so many of these assets at your disposal, so choose with care the rules you want to change.

SETH said:  The job of trying to make the world a better place seems impossible, for it appears that you have no power, and any small private beneficial action that you can take seems so puny in contrast to this generalized idea that you dismiss them sardonically, and so you do not try to use your power constructively.  You do not begin with your own life, with your own job, or with your own associates.  What difference can it make to the world if you are a better salesperson, or plumber, or office worker, or car salesman, for Christs sake?  What can one person do?    Yet that is precisely where first of all you must begin to exert yourself.  There, on your jobs and in your associations, are the places where you intersect with the world.  Your impulses directly effect the world in those relationshps.  Many of you are convinced that you are not important and while [each of] you feels that way it will seem that your actions have no effect upon the world.  You will purposefully keep your ideals generalized, thus saving yourself from the necessity of acting upon them in the one way open to you; by trusting yourself anad your impulses, and impressing those that you meet in daily life with the full validity that is your own.

My friend, saying that you don't have time to improve your thoughts and your life is like saying you don't have time to stop for gas because you are too busy driving. Eventually it will catch up with you."
