Know the value, be a better person.

I can. Often I have to analyze my actions and behavior, sometimes childish as hell and some downright clumsy. Right? I was once able to defeat the worst enemy in this life and only because I knew the price. The key word is "knew"! I have made and continue to make a lot of mistakes, but now only out of ignorance. And no, I'm not ashamed. I'm only ashamed of the ones I repeat. Like a needle stroke on my gut, on my heart, forever... I will never forget what happened, how I behaved and what I didn't do.

I am eternally grateful to the past for the opportunity to be better in the future, which, by the way, will come in just a few hours. As you read this, you can be better tomorrow, so take responsibility and get ready for the decisive actions that will be required of you tomorrow.

It takes time to understand a lot, to appreciate, realize and feel. Why not now? Why not immediately know what is “right” and “necessary”? Is it something akin to ”perfectionism“ and ”perfect“? It would seem so. But! Talking about ”ideality“ can be ”pulled“ by thousands of strings, it is not in vain that this is universally recognized as impossible. In the base only because it is highly subjective. Agreed?! It seems that, years later, one of my principles will undergo a transformation: © If you do something, do it perfectly.

I don't know how to translate it literally and accurately into Russian, but I am hooked by a phrase that has become a new principle: There is no best but better. I don't want to be perfect, I want to be better!
