what if, whenever we speak, whenever we write something that we think the world should now, what if, instead of saying "we" we said "i"?
as we accuse others of being unpatriotic or stingy or legalistic...why not put "i" instead of "we"?
why not change the perspective...
why not admit to myself that i am as selfish as i really know i am...
why not admit that change is impossible until i am ready to give everything up...

I think that if we are actually saying 'we' then we are (whether or not we want to admit it) including ourselves, we aren't singling ourselves out but we are including ourselves. So I think that instead we should try and include ourselves whenever we don't include ourselves and everytime we say 'they' we should at least think "do I fit into that category?" and if we do then we should say 'we' or 'I'. Just an idea!

Regarding personal motivation, "I" is most effective.
