Whenever I want to show my team better ways of doing things, I always pick on my own code or actions as the examples not to follow (if I can find them--otherwise I'll make some up). Then, I try to find examples from their work where they've exhibited the behavior I'd like (again, making up examples if needed).

You don't want to be the guy whose code is called out as garbage, unless you're doing it yourself.
