  • Life’s Defining Principles

    What principles define how you live?

    By Tracy Schruder

    I live by three sets of principles; work, private and public. The defining factors present themselves as they come.

    My work principals come from my extensive training and the rules that govern my reiki practice they are:

    Just for today, do not anger, Just for today, do not worry, Just for today, be grateful, Just for today, do your work honestly, and Just for today, be kind to all living things.

    My private principles come from living and learning and doing what is best for my highest good. They are,

    Self-Awareness, I recognize my strengths, weaknesses, values, and emotions.

    Self-Discipline, I practice self-control, self-regulation, and personal responsibility.

    Authenticity, I’m always true to myself , my values, and my beliefs.

    Resilience, I’m always developing coping strategies and I learn from my setbacks and failures. Gratitude, I cultivate appreciation and thankfulness for life’s blessings and opportunities.

    My public principles come from how I respond to the people around me in public places. They are; Respect, I treat others with kindness, consideration, and dignity.

    Integrity, I act with honesty, transparency, and ethics in all interactions.

    Responsibility, I take ownership of my actions and their consequences.

    Empathy, I strive to understand and appreciate different perspectives and experiences. Accountability, I am answerable for my actions and decisions.
