Get your grammar right! Live in the active voice rather in the passive, thinking more about what you do than about what happens to you. Live in the present tense, facing the duty at hand without regret for the past or worrying about the future. Live in the first person, criticizing yourself rather than finding faults with others.

The given text emphasizes focusing on the present, taking responsibility for your actions, and engaging in self-reflection rather than blaming others or worrying about the past or future. Option B aligns with this central idea, as the passage encourages living in the present and not dwelling on past regrets or future concerns.

Option A: The text does not make a claim that self-introspection is always better than being critical.

Option C:  The passage primarily focuses on living in the present and emphasizing the "active voice" rather than simply pursuing earnestness without regard for the outcome.

Option D: This doesn’t capture the main focus on living in the present and self-reflection rather than concentrating on others’ faults.
