Always striving to be better- PT test 2018 done and over. While I score a 99.7 for the second year in a row I weighed a little less and shaved about 10 seconds off my time. Always trying to be the best I can

"You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end, each of us must work for our own improvement and, at the same time, share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think can be most useful." ~Marie Curie
We have an obligation to improve ourselves, but we also have an obligation to do for others. Maybe that is to work with individuals, or groups or with a project or program you believe in. Whatever you choose, push yourself to do a little more, do a little better. And it doesn't hurt to give yourself the occasional pat on the back for a job well done. Be your own "good job" reinforcer...
