From Bad , Better to Best

As people, we’d like to live better. Most of us may or may not know how, and sometimes we make it difficult for ourselves. A simple way of improving , let’s call the following progressive improvement :

Unhealthy > Less unhealthy > Unhealthy > Healthy. Can you noticice something here. We don’t optimize early , for most people atleast , it’s best to gradually improve at something.

The best part is you don’t sacrifice everything all at once. Improving this way also helps us manage our expectations. What happens when you expect to be the best , but in reality you become mediocre.

Another simple way to be better is to learn about & avoid what doesn’t better you. It’s insane that we could start talking about being great without knowing what is means to be bad. It can be sad to do something wrong that takes you further from being your best without knowing it.

Its very difficult bettering yourself whilst struggling with those bad behaviours .It’s bad enough abusing drugs, having poor values , lying & having poor morality in general. These things hold you back & it’s difficult to convince someone otherwise.

You don’t have to become better overnight. Start by becoming less bad at the things holding you back . Small improvements compound, and sometimes knowing what to avoid is just as important as knowing what to pursue.
