To me, becoming a better human being transcends following a religion, tbough that could help. More directly, it relates to being both good and strong for your life. Focus on character strengths, such as honesty, integrity, compassion, loyalty, forgiveness, fairness and service. But also persistence, patience, acceptance, optimism, open-mindedness, decisiveness, confidence, courage, respoonsibility, composure and self-discipline.
It would be a mistake to try to work on too much all at once. I would work on being self-aware, exploit my strengths and work on improving the less-strong areas. The goal would be to change or strength behavior patterns related to the above attributes.
My goal would be to be a real, authentic individual, a person who is a true friend in relationships and who tries to contribute to my community in my own way.

Always put others needs/wants, etc. above your own. Love others more than yourself.
That should pretty much take care of it. ;-)
