ना रख अपने आप को, तू इस तरह संभाल कर, एक चादर को ओढ़, अपने कंधे पर डाल कर, समुंदरी शीत लहरों का प्रभाव, तुझसे कभी न रुकेगा, कुदरत की कहर के आगे, तू भी मिटटी में मिल जाएगा.

- wear a jacket at home in winter instead of turning on the heat
- use a fan in summer instead of AC
- line-dry my laundary in the backyard instead of using the gas dryer
- skip the plastic or paper bags when grocery-shopping
- gave up my SUV and got a Prius
- and literally dig through the household trash to find recyclable and compostable items that my wife and in-laws fail to separate out.

As Putt puts it

Technology is dominated by two types of people: those who understand what they do not manage, and those who manage what they do not understand.

- Putt's Law

Conceit spoils the finest genius. There is not much danger that real talent or goodness will be overlooked long; even if it is, the consciousness of possessing and using it well should satisfy one.
