Hmm, I tried becoming better...but I did not like that arsehole, he took life too seriously.
Fun aside - I can see in others how your article needs to be sent to them, but, as with most people, it is more difficult doing something about myself. I think most of us tend to settle at our 'comfort' level.
As Robert says, we should never stop striving to achieve our potential - and as I tell him, what a curse it would be to achieve it while we are still alive.
Well stepping out of our comfort zone sometimes is the key to success... And I think we ought that to ourselves while being still alive :P
