Expect people to be better than they are... - 5:31 PM, Feb. 15, 2006

"Expect people to be better than they are; it helps them to become better.
But don't be disappointed when they're not; it helps them to keep trying."

Now bring that thought back to yourself and expect you to be better than you are and don't be dissapointed when your not... Just make sure to learn and grow from your experience...

Here's a different perspective - 1:56 AM, Feb. 16, 2006 Edit Delete

I disagree with that quote. I would change it to say,

"Expect people to be better than you believed they were; it helps you see the truth that they are far better than you imagined. But don't be disappointed when your belief doesn't change right away. It will when you to keep trying."

Applied to yourself it works the same. We are all better than we currently imagine. I'm not so sure anyone needs to "get" better. We may just need to recognize that we were always better than we imagined.

We are born perfect and now it is just rediscovering who we really are so it isn't about getting better so much as what you said that we are perfect right now, when we get out of our own way... Thank you for your comments... Tim
