My Values

YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE,
if you're different.

The only thing uncommon in the word common is the letter “C”. Be that letter C. And the letter “N”. Or be that letter “N”. The way to make a difference is through understanding that playing a part in the composition of the bigger meaning while maintaining what you stand for, makes for a meaningful difference.

In other words, don’t be a “Z” or a “U” in the word common, it does not make any sense.

THINK BIGGER-ER,
act smaller-er.

You are bigger than the sum of your body hair, divided by the ones that fall every day. Thankfully, your head does not change in size during this process. Become the sum of your ideas while remaining well within yourself. Remember, you will loose a lot of hairs in your lifetime; the rest will just turn white.

Keep your head while this is happening. Think bigger-er.

3

DON’T BE A PAIN,
be a champion

Your mindset is the most important thing you possess, along with your house, money and stocks in Google. Keep your self-primed, have a champion mindset. Do your best and expect the best, without being a pain. That’s the champion mindset.

If you have to, sell everything but keep your mindset, and perhaps your car, and your house if you can.

4

FINISH YOUR THOUGHTS,
along with your work.

Thinking is good. Very good. In order to think, you need to choose your canvas. Thinking without a canvas is daydreaming. Work is good too. Very good. In order to work, you need to think.

Join the two together, now you have a canvas we can all be proud of.

5

DON’T THINK WITH YOUR MOUTH CLOSED,
And chew 30 times before swallowing.

Have a big idea? Great! Talk about it with your mouth full. Big ideas become good ideas through sharing. Now go test them out and see if they are worth pursuing. Ready to transform them into great ideas? Keep chewing at it till they become small enough to swallow.

Then swallow them.

6

ORIENT YOURSELF,
and then lose yourself.

Be a Cat. Land on your feet. Know your surroundings, your domain, your extents and your limitations. Understand where you are. That is your home. And then immerse yourself into something completely different.

Be a Cat again, find your way home.

7

THERE ARE NO RIGHT-RIGHTS,
only right wrongs.

“Right” is attached to traditions, customs, beliefs or morals. Right- rights are attache to inflated egos, displaced authority and insecure tantrums. Wrongs are attached to traditions, customs, beliefs and morals too, right? Use a right to identify, fix and transform a wrong.

Right said Fred, so should we.

8

MAKE YOUR OWN CAKE,
and then share it.

Baking is a great hobby; you mix a bunch of materials together, put it in the oven for a few minutes and out comes a finished product. Then comes the part where you get to enjoy your creation. Have too much of it yourself, you are risking, disease, gluttony and eventual obesity. Call upon others to eat it with you and you save yourself from a lifetime of problems. And you make a few friends along the way.

9

FIND YOUR OWN STORY,
then rewrite it again & again.

Everyone loves stories. People like to read stories other people write. A small portion of them get to write their own story. Be them. Find the story you are part of. Think of a story you want to be a part of. Take your story and change it to the story you want to be a part of. Then write it down.

Make references, give credits, be original
