About This Quote

If we could think about somebody else other than ourselves for a few minutes a day, this world would be so much better off. Many people have the thought that if only they could just take a few minutes a day to think about others, then they would be able to improve the world. However, what the majority of people fail to realize is that it isn’t just a matter of giving them a few minutes a day. They must practice thinking about others every single day.

It takes more than just giving them five minutes of time each day to think about others, or even 10 minutes. They must dedicate every waking minute of their lives to thinking about others.
