Westminster Abbey, when I was young and free ..., Cultivate one's morality and govern the country)

(The original text is contained on a tombstone of the church cemetery, but the host is unknown)

When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits, I dreamed of changing the world. as I grew older and wiser, I discovered the world wocould not change, so I shortened my sights somewhat and decided to change only my country.

But it, too, seemed immovable.

As I grew into my twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those closest to me, but alas, they wowould have none of it.

And now as I lie on my deathbed, I suddenly realize: If I had only changed my self first, then by example I wocould have changed my family.

From their inspiration and encouragement, I wowould then have been able to better my country and, who knows, I may have even changed the world.

The main idea is as follows:

 

When I was young and I was so angry, I dreamed of changing the world. Later, I grew up smart and found that the world was difficult to change. So I decided to change my country, but it was still difficult. When I'm desperate to change my family, they don't accept it.

Now, I suddenly realized that, if I changed myself only and acted as an example to influence my family, then I could change my country with their encouragement and encouragement, even, eventually changing the world.

 

This passage is suitable for job seekers who are eager to change jobs frequently. In the age of students, as a whole, it is necessary to set up ambitious goals for educating people. Therefore, after graduation, almost all of them are in a State from ideal to reality.

In addition, you should keep this sentence in mind when you feel that the company is too hard to persuade the leaders. To persuade department leaders, their own performance and performance must be good. To change the company, we should first operate our own departments properly; instead, we must change the world, to operate or run a successful company.

This is not to say that only the first half can ensure that your opinion is correct, but that only the first half can be used to persuade others to accept their opinions.

 

I also heard that this paragraph has been discussed in "Chicken Soup for the Soul.
