To live by...

In the last couple of months, it has been heavy on our hearts to remember our purpose and to continously chose how we live our lives from day to day. Without purpose, life can get so repetitive and empty and if we go to long this way it's easy to begin thinking what's the point? We have been blessed to have some very wise friends and as we have heard some on their thoughts and just in our daily reading, we have begun to write down the things we believe are most important to live by. Thought we'd share a few with you.

- Know your purpose and what you live for
- Glorify God with what you have (everything good thing in life is from God)
- Know and understand the value of teamwork
- Never stop learning and growing
- Enjoy life (don't let yourself get stuck in the hard times or the past)
- Live what you believe, both in public and private
- Be humble (in business...work to be the best, but know you are not)
- Make wise decisions
- Choose your words wisely (#1, if you can't say it in love, don't say it)
- Be positive
- Keep the to-do-list simple (when there's too much, we don't think clearly)
- Remember life is temporary (choose carefully how you will live it as we all get one chance)
- Know your strengths & weaknesses (don't ignore your weaknesses, work to overcome them)
