Setting goals for others is aggressive. It could be more about wanting a success story for ourselves, we are asking them to live up to our ideals. Rather than having expectations for others, just be kind to them. If people mess up, do anything you can to bring some happiness into their lives.
Actions in life can be reduced to two factors: positioning and timing. Almost anything is appropriate if it accords with the time and place, but when life presents us an opportunity we must be ready to seize it without hesitation. Position and timing is useless without awareness.
Chanting is no more holy than listening to the murmur of a stream, counting prayer beads no more sacred than simply breathing, religious robes no more spiritual than work clothes. Just live a quiet and simple life, free of ideas and concepts to attain oneness.
To achieve results that are enduring and complete, be gentle with a steady influence that never lapses. To produce such results, you must have a clearly defined goal. Your results may be less striking than things done suddenly, but they will be more lasting.
