Be Better: The Urgency is Now

by Camille Burnett

Be Better is an inspiring book based on a concept and a conversation to help shape a better tomorrow, now. It's a book of encouragement and action aimed at creating a domino effect that changes the way we think about how we live, how our lives affect others, and how we treat each other. It is aspirational in its belief that ordinary people can create an extraordinary world. Simply, it offers the solution that if each of us make the choice to be better, one person at a time, our world will be better. Collectively, we can do better and should do better. Be Better is a visionary book with a personal call to action to make a change and boldly declares how to pursue this vision. Each chapter focuses on specific principles and core fundamentals of being better. It introduces the reader to what it means to be better by discussing the concepts of being better, thinking better, living better and doing better in a practical way. These foundational principles are believed to be critical in helping to enhance our humanity and as a result the humaneness of the world around us. To be better is to live consciously and conscientiously, igniting the liberation of the human spirit that begins within each and every one of us.
