Everyone Is Good

Not everyone is considered good here, but being good implies many things. And many people might consider themselves as bad, but they are not as they think, they usually criticize harder on them than on others. This occurs often because people dislike giving so much positive credit to them. There can't be a person that's perfectly good, and that's why we live as a society. Bad and good people learn from others mistakes and henceforth they become better people. They also see the necessity of improving and not on what they will receive for what they do, "6.22…He then asked about Goodness. The Master said, "One who is Good sees as his first priority the hardship of self-cultivation, and only after thinks about results or rewards. Yes, this is what we might call Goodness."(pg 17)

People are always willing to improve in many ways and one way is having passion for what you do. You can not only be more successful, but also you will have a positive attitude towards your actions and that will not only influence you but the people around you. "6.29 The Master said, "One who knows it is not the equal of one who loves it, and one who loves it is not the equal of one who takes joy in it." (pg 17) this will change drastically the environment in which you are and the attitude of the people will also contribute for and improving and learning atmosphere. This will also influence the people in wanting them to become better and learn from the others and improve their way of doing the things.
