• A principle is- a fundamental truth or proposition that serves as the foundation for a belief or behavior  for a chain of reasoning.

• Whenever I am making a decision they have to at least go through one of the three principles: whatever decision I make I have to know that I will be able to go through with it, whatever decision I make will I be able to live with the long-term consequences, and finally from the decision I made would I be able to learn from this for a future reference. To put these principles into one word I follow: integrity, responsibility, and respect.

Quick Starter:August 25

Without trying to sound to sappy I would say the most important thing to me is my family. I would say that my family would be at the top because even though you may not get along with or agree with everything your family says you can still learn somethings about the world through them and make your own decisions based on the experiences your family went through. Another thing about family is that they can give you a vision of how you want to see yourself in life based on the choices they made for example your mom did x,y,and z and now she is a world renowned brain surgeon do I want to follow in my family's footsteps or give myself a different ending for better or for worse.
