I reject self pity.
I recognize that most happiness comes from choosing my work, or from accepting work which chooses me.
I dedicate myself to cultivating an ever-increasing capacity to take large pleasure in small things.
I resolve to regularly move between abstraction and personal observation, and to seek both the most concise abstractions, and the most perceptive and specific observations.
I resolve to always recognize that all reality exists on a continuum, and to place all observations in context.
I resolve to always remember that Acting For does not necessarily equate to Acting To.
