Some of the indicia of whether or not we have done our personal best include:
Have we improved a situation both for ourselves and others?
Have we grown by stretching ourselves beyond what is easy and convenient?
Have we stopped and chosen where we want to focus our best efforts, all the while knowing that best efforts in one area are likely to result in less than best efforts in another?
Lincoln said, “I do not think much of a man who is not wiser today than he was yesterday.”
Being wiser each day, learning from mistakes, understanding hidden dynamics that impact our ability to act from our best selves: how do you feel about these as indicators of doing your best?
