the wrong line.

Jonathan Safran Foer said something to this effect on a podcast and I can’t stop thinking about it.

Rather than judge ourselves off the line of perfection, how about we judge ourselves off of the line of doing nothing, instead?

In other words, instead of worrying that you have to go vegan, just eat a little less meat? Instead of becoming Mother Theresa tomorrow, how about just being nice to someone out of your comfort zone once a month? Instead of feeling guilty for flying, what if you chose to do one less business trip every other month? If everyone picked up a piece of garbage they saw on a walk or run… well… you get it…

It’s a simple and small thought perspective that is pretty encouraging!
