FYI: Here’s a portion of my personal list of beliefs that you may want to pass on

I believe I’m a work-in-progress, and there will always be a gap between who I am and who I want to be. I believe every day brings opportunities to learn and to do something meaningful. I believe the true test of my character is whether I do the right thing even when it might cost more than I want to pay. I believe no matter how I behave, some people will be mean-spirited, dishonest, irresponsible, and unkind, but if I fight fire with fire, all I’ll end up with will be the ashes of my own integrity. I believe life is full of joys and sorrows, and my happiness will depend on how well I handle each. I believe pain is inevitable but suffering is optional, and if I can control my attitudes, I can control my life. I believe kindness really matters, and sarcastic comments and badly-timed criticisms can cause lasting hurt. I believe there’s joy in gratitude and freedom in forgiveness, but both require conscientious effort. I believe what’s fun and pleasurable isn’t always good for me, and what’s good for me isn’t always fun and pleasurable. I believe no one’s happy all the time, but in the end, I can be as happy as I’m willing to be. I believe the surest road to happiness is good relationships. This is Michael Josephson reminding you that character counts
