in creative cooperation
and team-work.
Compromise, Fight, or Flight
Ineffective people believe
the whole is less than the

to “clone” other people in

122. 1. The principle of continuous learning, of
self- reeducation - the discipline that drives us
toward the values we believe in. Such
constant learning is required in today’s
world, in light of the fact that many of us can
expect to work in up to five radically different
fields before we retire.
2. The principle of service, of giving oneself
to others, of helping to facilitate other
people’s work.
SEVEN PRINCIPLES UPON

123. 3. The principle of staying positive and optimistic,
radiating positive energy - including avoiding the four
emotional cancers (criticizing, complaining, comparing, and
competing).
4. The principle of affirmation of others - treating people
as proactive individuals who have great potential.
5. The principle of balance - the ability to identify our
various roles and to spend appropriate amounts of time in,
and focus on, all the important roles and dimensions of our
life. Success in one area of our life cannot compensate for
neglect or failure in other areas of our life.
SEVEN PRINCIPLES UPON

124. 6. The balance of spontaneity and serendipity -
the ability to experience life with a sense of
adventure, excitement, and fresh
rediscovery, instead of trying to find a serious
side to things that have no serious side.
7. The principle of consistent self-renewal and
self- improvement in the four dimensions of
one’s life: physical, mental, spiritual, and
social emotional.

129. FOUR UNIQUE HUMAN ENDOWMENTS
1.1. SSelf-Awarenesself-Awareness
We begin to become self-aware and
explore the programs we are living out. We
come to realize that we stand apart from our
programming and can even examine it. We
also realize that between stimulus and
response, we have the freedom to choose.
This self-awareness then leads to the ability
to look at other unique endowments in our
secret life.
130. Our conscience is our internal sense of
right and wrong, our “moral nature.” It is the
“greater harmonizer” and “balance wheel” of
all the principles that govern our behavior.
Our conscience gives us a sense of the
degree to which our thoughts and actions are
in harmony with our principles.

create or to imagine that which does not exist
now. In that imagination lie our faith and our
hope for the future. We look at what is
possible, what we can envision.

our resoluteness - our ability to act based
solely on our self-awareness. We ask
ourselves, “Am I really willing to to the
distance on my mission statement?” “Am I
willing to walk my talk?” “Am I really willing
to put first things first in spite of external
distractions and pressures?” “Am I going to
live a life of total integrity?”

characteristics of good missioncharacteristics of good mission
statements, whether they be personal,statements, whether they be personal,
family, or organizational missionfamily, or organizational mission
statements.statements.
BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF
GOOD MISSION STATEMENTS
134. 1. A mission statement should be timeless and
changeless. Because goals are not timeless, they should
not be included. Mission statements should be based upon
unchanging core principles that operate regardless of
present realities or situations. This changeless core will
enable us to live with changes inside other people and
inside the environment. As our consciousness grows and
we mature, we will gradually strengthen, deepen, and
improve our mission statement. Nevertheless, we should
always initially write our mission statement as if it will
never change - as if it were timeless.
BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF
GOOD MISSION STATEMENTS
135. 2. A mission statement should deal with both
ends and means. Ends have to do with what
we are about. Means have to do with how
we go about achieving those ends. Principles
are what we implements to achieve those ends.
Ends and means are inseparable. In truth,
ends preexist in the means. “You’ll never
achieve a worthy end through unworthy
means.”
BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF
GOOD MISSION STATEMENTS
136. 3. A mission statement should deal with all
four of our basic needs:
a. To live (our physical and economic
needs)
b. To love and to be loved (our cultural
and social ends)
c. To learn (our needs to grow,
develop, be recognized, and be
useful) d. To leave a legacy
(our spiritual need for
meaning, for feeling that life matters,
that we add value and make a
difference.
BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF
GOOD MISSION STATEMENTS
137. 4. A mission statement should deal with all the
significant roles of our life, such as a parent,
teacher, manager, neighbor, and so forth.
“Internalizing” our mission statement will also help
us get a clear understanding of what is truly
important. Goethe once said, “Things which matter
most must never be at the mercy of things which
matter least.” This means that we learn how to say
no at appropriate times. Every time we say yes to
something that is of little or no importance, we are
saying no to something that is more important.
Almost every day, most of us are caught in
circumstances where we should say no but don’t.
We often lack the ability to utter a firm but gracious
no.
