When we make
the decision to create a better world, we are making a decision to change our
lives. If we want society to make working for a better world its priority, working
for a better world must be our priority, too.
Some
will decide to dedicate their lives completely to this goal. But for most of us,
there are little things that we can do each day to make our lifestyles more in
line with our wish for a better world. These 'little' efforts will have a profound
effect on our own lives. Our better world lifestyle will be an important
role model for those around us. Together, as part of a coordinated Better World
Movement, the combined effect of these 'little efforts' by each of us will transform
our society.
Living
our lives more in line with a better world lifestyle is half of the equation for
creating a better world. That's what the first half of this manual discusses.
The second half of the book is about spreading the message that we can
create a better world together. As we spread hope, the Better World Community
will grow and we will create the infrastructure to transform our society, so that
working for a better world becomes society's priority as well.
