“The most important thing for a human being is not what is between his or her ears; it is what is in his or her heart. If the spirit is strong, one can accomplish anything.
You only live once. Keep yourself in the present. The past is gone, and the future is unknown.
Do not try to cut off all your passions. Passions give birth to heroic activity. Fulfill your passion and that will bring bliss.
Do not think of work — any work — as duty. If it is a duty, it will become a burden. How do you turn a burden into a pleasure? Live respectfully, correctly, positively, and boldly.
When you rise in the morning, greet the day with vigor. During the day, refrain from thinking or saying “I am confused”, “I’m weak”, “I’m sad”, “I need help”. At night before you sleep, release all thoughts of sadness, anger or irritation. Think of pleasant things.
Do not overwork yourself.
Reflect constantly on your state of mind.
Approach others in a positive bright manner.
Always be grateful, honest, kind, and pleasant.
Speak truly and honestly.
Body and mind form a single entity; life follows basic natural laws that should not be violated.
Your attitude towards life determines its outcome.
The best attitude is based on respect, boldness, truthfulness, and purity.
Foster the life force by being healthy, courageous, decisive, resolute, and vigorous.”

I have essentially made the decision to dedicate a significant portion of my limited resources to helping people better appreciate the consequences of their choices.
