for safety, health, love, success & joy

for safety: we should never insult nor fight evil with evil or we'd risk our lives

for nature for us: even if initially awkward, we should defecate and urinate upon appropriate earth, near good plants roots as has been a natural cycle; we should also refrain from littering and somehow help solve this issue

for health: we should only eat & drink utterly natural foods & beverages for optimal health (for such as the above)

for love: genuinely, authentically and even creatively using "The Five Love Languages" by Gary Chapman on a daily basis with those we care about helps to keep love going

1. acts of service

 example: changing another's tire

2. words of affirmation

 ex.: "I love what you did with your hair!"

3. gift giving

"I thank you for the sweater you gave me for Christmas, brother."

4. quality time

"Thank you for watching a film with me. It was very nice."

5. welcome intimacy

"I really needed that hug. Thank you."

for success:

Lest we become bogged down in trivialities, we should first address critically important issues and opportunities.

"Creating agreements works wonders.  Up-vibe your personal and professional relationships by learning to create agreements instead of expecting others to do things (and then being disappointed [if] they don’t)."

The 14th Dalai Lama, Gyalwa Rinpoche, quoted in "I Am", a movie:

Question for the Dalai Lama: “What’s the most important [thing] we can do now?

* Answer: “Critical thinking, followed by action. Discern what your world is. [...] And then figure out where your talents might fit in to make a better world.”

For some lagniappe ("a little something extra" of Creole expressions), the 14th Dalai Lama also said, "Once a year, go somewhere you've never been before."

When I began to track my business efforts, I earned a profit and knew how.

Pomodoro Technique: 25 minutes of work and 5 minutes of break time has been effective (and a longer break (15-30 minutes) after a few of these "Pomodoros")


We should invest some time outdoors in nature & into enriching enjoyments such as music, dance, sports & art.


Additionally, please "reduce, reuse and recycle" to avoid waste in your daily life.

this is part of how you can help with our environmental and waste challenges:
