These Laws encourage individuals to live impeccably with more
joy, more choice, and more peace. This is a path not without
risk, but not without rewards. Living by the Warrior Code will
enrich daily living on your own terms.
-
Pay attention. Stay in the present. Its the only place
anything is really happening.
-
Take responsibility. This is your life, take it back. Either
you get to own it, or you blame someone or something else for
it.
-
No
kvetching. No whining, no sniveling - it takes you out of the
present and lets you abdicate responsibility.
-
Don't take any shit. It's very bad for one's self-esteem to
take any abuse. Stand up to your tyrants, both internal and
external. The cost is too great not to.
-
Do
it anyway. Hard choices temper our strength and our integrity;
they make the difference between a life of mediocrity and a
life of excellence.
-
Don't quit. Look at what stops you, at where you give the
effort up. That is the edge between becoming a victim or a
warrior.
-
Keep your agreements. A warrior is only as good as his or her
word. The way we build self-trust and trust in others is by
making and keeping agreements.
-
Keep your sense of humor. Otherwise what's the point? Humor
helps us to stretch beyond ourselves and our own limits.
-
Love one another. Otherwise where's the meaning? It's the way
we remember we're not alone in this universe.
-
Honor your connection to Source. There is a force in the
universe, greater than ourselves, that creates us, sustains
us, provides for us, cares for us, guides us, and loves us. It
speaks to us from within. Trust it.
