Got Values?

You don't have to agree with the Dalai Lama's philosophy of life. But do you understand what values you choose to live by? Do you like those values? Sometimes we need to see those values before we can change them.

The Dalai Lama's philosophy of life (continued):
16. Be gentle with the earth.
17. Once a year, go someplace you've never been before.
18. Remember that the best relationship is one, in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.
19. Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.
20. Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon.

"Show me a man who cannot bother with the little things and I'll show you a man who cannot be trusted with the big things."

What's your philosphy of life?

Your philosophy of life should bring you to places that will inspire others and gain their respect. They should describe the way you actually live your life. People are people watchers. Your philosophy of life will reflect the values that you have as long as you're LIVING those values.

Dalai Lama continued values of life:

11. Live a good, honorable life. Then, when you get older and think back, you'll be able to enjoy it a second time.
12. A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life.
13. In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation.
14. Don't bring up the past.
15. Share your knowledge. It's a way to achieve your immortality.
