“I have a total of 29 principles. I want to share some of them with you:

1. Be grateful as often as possible and as deeply as possible for as many things as possible.

2. Act responsibly even when other people act irresponsibly.

3. Create win-win solutions.

4. Always take full responsibility for your words, actions, and reactions.

5. Be kind to everyone for each person carries a hidden burden.

6. Focus on facts rather than assumptions, imagination, fantasy, or emotionally driven thinking.

7. Be present, empathetic, and responsive to, but not responsible for, others.”
