From the inside out
When you feel the urge to be critical of someone else, look first within yourself. The weaknesses and shortcomings you perceive in another may very well be pointing to improvements you can make in your own life.
Instead of depending on others to change, or attempting to force them to do so, look for positive changes that you can make. You'll always have much more success controlling your own life than you will have controlling others.
If you wish to live in a positive world, be a positive person. If you desire peace, then be completely at peace with yourself.
Life is a mirror that reflects your most authentic self back to you. It flows from the inside out.
The values and priorities that you live by will greatly influence the world that you live in. The thoughts and feelings you hold most consistently on the inside will determine how life unfolds for you on the outside.
Allow peace, love, joy and fulfillment to flow from the inside out. Make your world the best it can be.
-- Ralph Marston
