The Struggle To Aim High

Our actions are usually governed by a few principles. The principles closest to our heart.

These principles will be revealed by our actions, moreso than our words.

I propose that one of the highest principles to govern your actions is, doing the right thing.

When that principle governs your actions, you will speak truth, you will build and contribute.

When we let other principles take precedent we act out less than our capabilities. Principles such as, who can I impress to move forward, or what's the fastest way to get what I want or how do I make it seem like I am ______, and etc....

So evaluate your actions and that will lead you to understand your guiding principles that we hold closest to our hearts. If our actions are lining up to a "less than" principle, start changing your actions to line up with a higher aiming principle.
