What's important to me as a man?


(refined from last post)


Serving – Help anyone who needs it with empathy & humility.

Honor – Respect the body (health). Honor every life. Waste nothing. Honor family by providing sustenance, leadership, wisdom, being a Godly example, protection, love, & loving discipline.

Integrity – I am who I am in all situations using honesty and truth.

Passion – Be adventurous, courageous, resolute. Faith in the beyond myself.

Freedom – Financial independence. Freedom to pursue full time the other values of service, honor, integrity, & passion.  Spend less than you earn, invest the surplus, avoid debt.

My values


Frugality –

I am a good steward of my resources; I take care of my belongings as well as other’s belongings and mother nature.  I use things completely and if necessary, discard of them appropriately. Once I buy something, I enjoy it for as long as possible.

Freedom –

I enjoy having choices. Because of life’s changes I have to be flexible.


Honesty –

I tell the truth always. I am the same person behind closed doors as well as in public.

Financial Independence –

I choose how I spend my days. I focus on my values to live life to the fullest.
     
Service –

“The least of these”; I help those in need - People in the margins; When you fall down, I give you my hand so you can get back up.  Every person deserves love and each life on earth is valuable. I contribute. I serve.

Growth –

I am always learning something new.            

Health –

I need to be healthy if I am going to contribute to other’s lives.  I eat food that is healthy for my body; I exercise
