I want to leave a legacy that my family and friends can be proud of so I can understand your views. I agree with much of what you've said but often I find that there are a growing number of people who stand up and admit they made a mistake only to repeat the same mistake over and over. I think there is more value in actually learning from the mistake than simply admitting to it.

One of the things I would suggest is to really examine what you feel are the ills in our/ your society and then make sure that you follow your own moral compass especially when it comes to those ills.

For instance, I feel Walmart has caused an enumerable amount of problems for the economy in a variety of ways yet I find my fat ass waddling down the aisles. I don't feel good about that decision and although it may have caused an inconvenience I could have made a better more moral choice.
