To inspire in others a desire to change for the better is truly noble;
but this you can do only by leaving them alone,
and become more noble yourself.
The best and the simplest way to persuade others
to take advantage of the good that you may have found,
is to prove in your own life,
that what you have found is better.
All minds want the best,
and they will soon know the best
when it is constantly before them as a living reality.
Seeing is believing, as far as the world is concerned,
and therefore they require living examples
of those who have proven the superiority of the better way.
In every thought, word and action
my ruling desire shall be to enrich, ennoble and beautify existence
for all who may come my way.
