The Basis For A Great Life

Everything in life is based on principle.

Principles are basic truths, fundamental laws of the universe, facts of nature, and primary units of life. The "law of gravity" is a principle of the universe. Isaac Newton discovered the principle and changed the nature of physical science, securing his place in world history. Discovering principles is a lifelong passion for people who succeed. People who live by personality, preference or prejudice have no bedrock on which to build their lives and end up failing. Their foundation is shifting, movable, unsteady. People who make decisions by personality or preference can be talked out of their decisions from oe day to the next. People who make decisions by prejudice can be dead wrong, have it proved to them, yet remain steadfast on the wrong path doing the wrong thing in the wrong way.

The more you build your life on principle, the higher your highs, the straighter your path, and the greater your life.

The level on which you live is under your power of choice. Once you make a choice, you become the servant to that choice. Life is composed of your choices. Circumstances do not determine your level of life. What you do with circumstances determines your level in living. Refusing to exercist your power of choice allows others to exercise it for you. Allowing others to make your choices for you allows them to create your world, and when they do, they always make it too small. No one can see or fully understand what is in your own mind and heart. That's between you and God. You can chafe and complain about the constraints within which you're being forced to live, but the truth is, regardless of your circumstances, you still have choices about your life.
