Reform begins and mostly ends with self-reform. As the Golden Rule is presented in Luke 6:27-38: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
Under altruist ethics, this can be translated as treat others with love and respect as you would want them to treat you in return, and that translation is laudable.
I would offer a slightly superior translation under egoist ethics: reform, discipline and seek to development your talents in a mode of self-reform, anticipating that if other adults in society are so self-reforming, than social issues and problems largely dry up and blow away.
