My Very Own Philosophy
Don't Be a Douche Bag.
what's yours? |
I put it in my signature:
Be Just and Fear Not. And I wish to credit RHPS and wolf. |
The ends are the only justification for the means.
|
Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing.
|
It seemed like a good idea at the time.
|
Leave it better than you found it
|
do no harm. If you can, do good.
|
Good things get better, Bad things get worse.
|
oh, and don't forget to eat a dick!
|
If it hurts you are doing it wrong.
|
Action speaks louder than philosophy.

Won't you look up at the skyline
At the mortar, block, and glass And check out the reflections in my eyes See they always used to be there Even when this was all was grass And I sang and danced about a high-rise And you were laughing at my helmet hat Laughing at my torch So go ahead, you can laugh all you want I got my philosophy And I trust it like the ground That's why my philosophy It keeps me walking when I'm falling down (Ben Folds Five, "My Philosophy") |
Give everyone you meet the benifit of the doubt.
Everyone starts with 100 points. You have to prove you are a dick to lose points. Some people lose them a few at a time, some 50 at a time, some never. Once you lose them it is real hard to get them back. I forgive but rarely forget. Screw me and I will give back in spades. On the same note I will give you the shirt off my back if I think you need it. Family before everyone else in life. Live life to it's fullest, Tomorrow you may be dead. Every meal is your last meal, enjoy it. Expect the worst, hope for the best, you will never be disappointed in life. All people are evil and struggle to be good, some are better at being good than others. Some allow the evil to take over, give them no quarter. Lead, follow, or get the hell out of my way. Seize the moment. The first report is always suspect. When taking command the first order of business is to do nothing. For everyone who comes to you with a problem ask yourself, is this my problem, their problem, or do they want me to make their problem my problem. Resist the later. Help them figure out how to solve it without you. The 11 Principles of Leadership: Know your self and seek self improvement. Be technically and tactically proficient. Seek responsibility and take responsibility for your actions. Make sound and timely decisions. Set the example. Know your soldiers and look out for their well-being. Keep your subordinates informed. Develop a sense of responsibility in your subordinates. Ensure the task is understood, supervised, and accomplished. Build the team. Employ your unit in accordance with its capabilities.
