Controlling others

It is not helpful to legislate to make organisations, and therefore people, do the right thing. To force or coerce someone into doing the right thing as you, the self made authority, see it, can only lead to resentment and I will ask you who are you to tell me what to do? On what authority do you know what is right more than another?

Surely it is better to look to yourself, to understand completely the way you are, through non-judgemental self awareness, than it is to tell others what to do. To want a world that conforms to the individual with their self centred view must be the act of an insecure person that needs a world that fits only their desires and where only they can be right. That would be such a painful place to be as the world will obviously not be able to accommodate the selfish wishes of one individual.
