BE SKEPTICAL BUT NOT A SKEPTIC
NEITHER BELIEVE NOR DOUBT
OBSERVE
I speak to myself.
Life is a journey.
Search with willingness to not find.
Looking for answers, my search is without end.
I enjoy the search, discover or not.
Hypothesize without declaration.
Smile in the face of unknowing, without knowing whether you know or not.
Neither doubt nor believe.
Listen carefully to others. Present your thoughts.
Do not argue. He may be right.
Be willing but not anxious to admit you may be wrong.
If you find tension, you are taking yourself too seriously.
Anger is rarely justified, always dangerous.
Avoid emotion as much as possible.
Speak truth as best you can see it.
To learn be willing to change your mind.
Avoid personal opprobrium.
Respect all points of view.
Be flexible like a palm.
Learning requires change.
Change what can when needed, accept what you cannot change, including yourself.
Do the best you can, and you are OK.
If we are human, we will err.
