“Doing what is right, fair, and honorable is more important than winning or losing.”- Chick Moorman

                   Doing what is right, fair, and honorable is great. It makes you feel great inside, and it’s the right thing to do. I know that when I’m playing in a game, if someone plays dirty. They’re frowned up. They’re also penalized. It isn’t right. I try to play fair as much as I can, and if I accidentally do something wrong, I immediately apologize. I choose the right. That way, if I win, I did it the right way. If I win or lose, I will have done the right thing and I’ll feel good about myself.

Keys to Successful Living

Part 4

(Anon)

What is personality? The word “Personality” comes from the root persona, which means “mask.” Our personality is a mask that we wear. We don’t have to wear a mask when we are by ourselves; we wear a mask to express ourselves to others. Our personality is a character, and that character is composed of certain habits. Each of us has numerous habits; so when we want to understand our personality, we should understand our habit patterns. A habit pattern is a conscious thought or action that one repeats again and again. This creates a groove in the unconscious mind and forms an unconscious habit. Unconscious habits are stronger than conscious habits. All habit patterns are self-created. When we sit down and try to understand which of our habits control our life, we see that there are many deep-rooted habits within us.

Choose habits that will mold your personality into a super successful student and person.

Keys to Successful Living

Part 1

Everyone wants to be successful in life, but where are the keys to success? Do we have to go out and search for those keys, or do we have those potentials already within ourselves? When we begin to examine life, we can see that it is divided into two aspects—life within and life without far away from civilization and live in the wilderness doing nothing but meditation, we cannot ignore external life. We still have to see that we eat, do our ablutions, and perform our practices on time. So life in the external world is as important as life in the internal world. Even one who has renounced the world has to understand the world relationship properly, because life itself is actually relationship. The body is related to the breath and the breath is related to the mind. So life virtually means relationship, and thus the art of living and being requires an understanding of one’s relationship to the external world and the relationships within oneself.

Benjamin Franklin’s 13 Virtues

Franklin tracked his progress on charts he created. The first letter of each day was listed on the top and the first letter of each virtue was indicated down the left side. He would add a dot if he felt he fell short of meeting that virtue on a given day. Benjamin Franklin carried these charts with him as a reminder of his personal plan of conduct.

The following 13 virtues continue to be relevant today. Next to each virtue is Franklin’s definition.

1.    Temperance

“Eat not to dullness.”
