Comparisons to Better Self Frameworks

Goodness & Willingness

Willingness is not necessarily used for good ends. However, being pure positivity, it can be expected to show a relation to making the world a better place.

From the outset, this responsive persona framework lent itself to comparisons with:

■ creating a better communal existence (RH"K)
by focussing on primal injunctions (RH")
and
■ creating a better world (RsH"K)
by focussing on producing goodness (RsH").

The challenge to create either of these better worlds, for community life or one where goodness reigns, naturally demands willingness.

The stages for investigation and developing the Trees in the three cases show both similarities and differences which are laid out in the Table below.

Originating Tree	Step-1 Cross 3Ls	Step-2 Cross 2Ls	Step-3 Cross 1L	Step-4 Intra-Level
Better Communal Existence	Unite with Others	Stabilize Yourself	Thrive with Others	Assert Yourself
Better World Bring Goodness to Life	You are the One	Co-existence via Persistence	Goodness as Your Criterion	Sustain Your Energies
A Responsive Persona Impossible Challenges	Create Your Base	Stabilization & Persistence	Integrate with Others	Become Dependable
