Maintaining dignity under pressure... In Chinese we have a saying like "not be too proud, not be too humble" (not easy to translate the exact meaning) - but i guess, not selling yourself short in situations is what we all need to learn.

How quickly we go to the "petty tantrum" card is inversely proportional to our class, I guess one would say. Need some work here. Maintaining dignity under pressure is a big one.

I'm trying my best and I'm glad and grateful when I'm making progress. Principle #1 is of course important - it is the basis. When we take full responsibility, when we don't blame, when we don't complain, when we try our best to make our life a little bit better and this world a better place, the circumstance will change accordingly. More than once when I'm facing some adverse situations, when I change how I interpret it and my reaction towards it, the situation change. It's really like a miracle sometimes. Thank you Takuin.

What I like to do sometimes...I'll open that book to a random page, and I will act upon whatever principle I landed on. I might make that principle the theme for the coming week. One of the most enlightening things you can do is use Principle #1 - Take 100% Responsibility, and live your life by that for an entire 30 days. By the end of that 30 day period, and amazing transformation will have occurred. Of course, you are truly a CLASS ACT, and it shows in your every action. Take care, and be good. Takuin Great post!
