I always say... You can do your best, and at some point that will fail! I used to feel like you can't do any better than your best! And if your best fails... well maybe it just wasn't for you!
I since realized... that you can do your best and it may fail. But if you do your best at all times... even in failure... Your Best Gets BETTER! That was a mindblowing revelation!
I think you live by something else I have said consistently in my life... "You can't change the world... but you can change yourself! Then the world can change! " I really agree with you about the actionable part of changing or growing, as an individual and a community! Talk is cheap.... Actions Do Speak Louder Than Words! Thank You For Your Actions, Attitude, and Ethics! They are greatly appreciated and a model of what this community needs more of as a whole!
