Thirteen Virtues (in no particular order)

MY 13 VIRTUES
1.       Faith
Seek proficient understanding, opposed to giving way to blissful ignorance of what I do not believe but believe I should.
2.       Truth
Believe in people, not everything they say.
3.       Acceptance
Accept things as they are, not so much for what ‘I’ believe they should be.
4.       Wisdom
Learn something profound everyday for the rest of my life. Look at learning as I would faith… ‘Mustard seed moving mountains’. (every little bit counts).
5.       Modesty
Work on my limitations of modesty (excessive and deficient).
6.       Honor
Understand, accept and respect the choices, values and beliefs of others as the rights of the individual, especially when they are contrary to my own.
7.       Tolerance
Lord, help me. Practice what it takes others to tolerate me. Know and actively understand that there are no perfect people, situations nor PEOPLE. Stupidity is prevalent in society, therefore understanding and patience are necessary.
8.       Consistency
Learn to stay in tune to my personal feelings and needs, opposed to giving way to the whims of others. Saying, “No.” when ‘no’ is necessary and sticking to it.
9.       Honesty
Tone it down.
10.   Order
Obtain and maintain the proper and individual place(s) for all things, people and situations.
11.   Peacefulness
Strive for, acquire and maintain positivity in every possible aspect of my life.
12.   Temperance
Breathe. Pray. Reflect. Understand. Golden Rule.
13.   Self Preservation
Acquire and maintain a physical, mental and intellectual balance for the benefit of a preferably happy and productive life.
Bonus

14.   Productivity
Be productive whenever the opportunity presents itself, regardless of fatigue, mood or preference.
