" There is nothing new under the sun" Out of these four resolutions, Franklin came up with a set of thirteen virtues, which he practiced methodically. He wrote each of the virtues down in a book and practiced one of the virtues for a week, trying to perfect it. At the end of the week, he would evaluate his performance. At the end of thirteen weeks, he would start back on the first virtue again. This is a copy of Benjamin Franklin’s 13 virtues…

The underlying factor in all of these is to treat each one (I mean each one) the way you want to be treated and the way we treat people stems from their dignity as human beings and as such deserve all respect they deserve. One of the things that I have read and have applied to myself is "...get used to saying no..." initially it seems selfish but looking at it in a positive way it can be seen as saying no to those habits/vices that make us a selfish person or a self-centered person, etc. If everyone just thought of the others first before themselves (in all things) we would be living in a better place but it starts with oneself. Keep up the good posts. Hi,

I LOVE your website. I am launching a greeting card line, "Visions From The Soul". My book, the Art of Being Magnificent...sounds so very similar to your BEING Project. I was thinking of a Being Series of Books...similar to your list. I will pop in for some yoga, and look forward to meeting you. namaste diane Jonathan,
