Okay, let me first start off by saying that NO, AT THIS TIME I AM NOT A FATHER OR A FATHER-TO-BE. Second, this list reflects things that may not apply to me, but that I wish did and/or that I think are important. Third, some of these are quotes from famous people; they are marked by the quotations =D. So here it goes:
Never lie if it is within your power.
Show courtesy to everyone, ESPECIALLY the ones you hate
Don't be afraid to try anything once. But don't be afraid to say NO.
If you don't say it, or do it, who will?
Look people in the eye. The eye is the window to the soul.
Don't be satisfied with how things are. Always look to make things better.
Lead, never follow. If leading means being the example, be the example.
"Be the change you want to see in the world."
"What is a man who does not make the world a better place."
"If everything you want to do can be accomplished during your lifetime, you're not thinking big enough."
Think sideways. Christ did.
Don't try to be Christ. Try to show Christ to others.
God can do great things. But only if his hands are willing.
There is no can't, or fail. There is only submission.
Debate often. Be willing to learn.
Be humble in victory, and gracious in defeat.
Don't underestimate the poor, but even more, don't overestimate the rich.
Never accept a job offer that promotes leisure and excess. You are only expediting the fall of man.
Life should not be measured by how much you have, but by how much you DO.
Physical health is essential. Physical beauty is worthless.
In all you do, remember that you are you for a reason. God has a plan for you that will bring glory to him and peace to the nations. People have a plan for you that will bring wealth to them and poverty to the nations.
What do you guys think? What would you add or take away from here?
