Comments on: Being Right…or Not http://zoeweil.com/2008/04/25/being-rightor-not/ This blog is dedicated to promoting ideas and resources for doing the most good and the least harm to ourselves, other people, animals and the environment. I call this principle MOGO, short for most good, and I welcome your comments and suggestions for how we can create a world in which the MOGO principle guides all people, governments, and businesses.

“Good” is what brings you a state of inner peace, contentment, and an innate understanding that you have done the right thing, whether or not anyone else defines it as “good.”

We are allowed to mess up. We are allowed to make mistakes. It’s OK, I have permission to make mistakes, and so long as I chose to engage in serious introspection, I am likely to learn something useful from my mistake, and I can then use that lesson to make more competent and productive decisions in the future.

Jesus said “Seek and you shall find,” which I think means exactly what it says. Seek a good path. Try to live a good life. Look for ways to live in a good and productive manner, and so long as you keep looking, honestly, with true intention, you will find ways to live in a good and wholesome manner, even if there are numerous bumps on the road before you actually get there.
