Being a Good Person

To begin with find out whether the image that you are trying to live upto is yours or someone else's, for example your mother's image of a good son, or a good brother, a good husband and so on. Similarly you may have an image of a good employer, a good professional, a good philonthrophist and so on.
Once these images are formed they get a strangle hold on us, because we are supposed to have role models. Then we try to be like someone else. Also in being role models for others we tie ourselves down.
I have discarded both concepts. No one is a role model for me. I admire many people but I am not going to be like them. I also do not want any one to follow me.
Doing this was not so difficult as you make out.
Try it out once, for a while,and experience the lightnesss that comes with it. You will not go back to being a good person.
You will be a good person, that you in deed are.
Lots of love
