It has become more necessary than ever to abide by sets of principles.

Our westernized, industrialized culture preaches mindless consumption. Too much food at our disposal. Too many instant dopamine hits. Too much comfort.

Without a strong set of principles, navigating through the temptations of this world becomes a daunting task.

Abide by a few principles that you are sure to stick to, through thick and thin. This will become a part of your identity. This is what will keep you grounded and even keeled.

Here are some of mine:

• Glory in solitude
• Patience
• Fasting
• Laughter
• Discipline
• Self-control
• Willpower
• Attacking weakness
• Zero complaining
• Zero caring what others think
• Zero addiction to comfort

What are yours?
