Every moment.
Every moment brings a chance for self-betterment.
Looking at the world as if it's a fishbowl is what isolationists do. Outside looking in, not feeling a sense of belonging and actually finding the idea of belonging to be a repulsive one... It's easy to do. You observe and all you see, hear, and touch is shallow, stupid superficiality. Afraid of being tainted, you withdraw.
Try looking at the world as if it were a mirror; the behavior that disgusts you, is it just what the image in front of you does, or is it a true reflection of what you do yourself? In some cases, if you're truly honest with yourself, you'll see your own shortcomings. And, hopefully, you'll get to working on them.
The code you live by can be a rigid one, but hopefully it was flexible, creative thinking that allowed you to construct it in the first place, testing and retesting beliefs and suppositions. Making minor adjustments to the code from time to time is quite beneficial; making wholesale changes repeatedly means you're just not thinking things through...
Note: I write these posts with the command, Physician, heal thyself in mind.
