I review these principles a few times a week. They keep me grounded and remind me of how I want to operate day to day. The first principle reminds me to always look to God and first, be grateful for all his blessings in my life, and talk to him every day.
The second principle reminds me to always prioritize my relationships with my wife and children. Personally, there is nothing more important than trying to be the best father and husband I can be.
Although I may fall short of these guiding principles, as I am not nearly perfect, keep them posted on my fridge as a daily reminder. Because they are in bullet point form, I will eventually describe what each of them mean to me and what they remind me to do.
