Dear everyone,
I try to do, and believe, these things. I have made them into a poster. Some days the list helps and grounds me. Some days I fail. Take what you like and leave the rest.
- Have the diligence to work hard to develop my mind and body.
- Have the self discipline to aim for goals and the persistence to achieve them.
- Have the wisdom to use my skills only for self defence, the protection of others and to face my own challenges and develop my character.
- Have the self belief to keep a positive focus in all situations and the flexibility to adapt for positive outcomes.
- Have the courage to take full responsibility for my actions and the confidence and strength of character to do what I know to be right.
- Be honest with myself and others.
- Respect others and know when to show compassion.
- Have the confidence and courage to follow my dreams.
- Have the patience to enjoy life's rewards and never take what I love for granted.
- To NEVER EVER be a victim.
- Have Pride in my achievements and stand tall in the face of all challenges.
- Pain is temporary. Pride, honor, dignity and humility last forever.
- Never confuse comfort with happiness.



Thank you so much for sharing this, having a list can be helpful when we're not thinking straight. You have a lot of wisdom!
