You might be interested to know that Zoe Weil has also written a book called Most Good, Least Harm that helps people do just that. I'll be reviewing it in a couple of weeks.

Thanks for sharing it! With all the distraction and desire for instant gratification today, I think it's more important than ever to teach kids about living a life filled with meaning and respect. I'm a big fan of "walking your talk" and like the suggestion for parents to look at their own life before trying to shape the lives of their children. I've heard "do as I say, not as I do" many times and think it's a load of crap. ;) Here's one of my favorite quotes from one of my favorite athletes: "It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice." - Roger Federer So simple, but yet so powerful!
