So much easier to see “good” in others I think. We know ourselves too well and thoughts, motivations and insecurities prevent people from believing they are “good”.
No matter what someone thinks, actions are what I would use to determine “good”. Words are interesting because they can do good or hurt in certain situations, but the best words without consistent action are worthless.
I think for myself, when I am careful with words, consistent with what I do and “others-centered” I am at my best, but don’t feel comfortable calling myself “good”.

Being a good tool for other people to utilize and never complaining.

I have no interest in being a good person.

I'd rather be an [i]effective[/i] person.
Promoting thriving and minimizing suffering, even if that means going against your own personal dogma.
good to the environment
to yourself
to others
and don't harm

My motto in life is "try not to be a cunt" that's it for me.

Do little harm...

@pillowthoughts I thought long before answering... Something's there's no way to avoid doing harm... Simple example is taking your kids to get vaccinated... You're doing harm to their physch at that point ( if they're scared) , but it's for a greater good...
I kinda have to agree but I think we could avoid doing harm like communicating without using hurtful words trying to solve things. I know could be hard sometimes but I guess it’s worth a try.@ozgirl512

@pillowthoughts no, I agree with your thoughts, I also believe it's impossible not to cause some harm to people... Hence try and minimise it.
