Watching my intention to see for myself just how often I am motivated solely by selfish concerns. Not surprisingly, almost everything I do is based on a selfish desire with little regard for others. As a result I’m trying to see if I can attenuate those less than noble intentions and try to reframe my motives in a more compassionate manner. In other words, I’ll try to stop being so damn selfish and put others first.
