THAT’S NOT THE RIGHT ATTITUDE.

People love a good complain, rarely do they want to do anything about it.

I am getting heavily involved in the maintenance of the communal garden at my apartment complex because I want it to be orderly and look beautiful. It’s most effective because I’m making the decision to do so.

What you’ll find is people are full of great ideas that they start to impose but, more often than not, they will abandon the project, assuming someone else will take the helm and take care of it.

Women love getting dogs but it ends up being the bloke looking after them, etc.

When you start to take charge of things, you’ll find the initial stages are taken up in dismantling things – this is where people usually get very angry because you’re ‘interfering’ or ‘not minding your business’. Ask them to take care of things themselves and you’ll usually find they go silent or they only deal with you ‘when they have to’.

It’s someone else’s job is a childish way to live. Responsibility/getting things sorted is the adult way to live. You’ll initially get some flack, later you’ll get praise. 

Do the good thing.
