A Commitment to Living with Principle

I firmly believe that life is abundant, a limitless spring of resources, opportunities, and blessings. This abundance is not a mere chance occurrence but a constant presence that surrounds us, waiting to be recognized and harnessed. However, accessing and expanding this abundance is a personal responsibility. To truly tap into the abundance that life provides, you must take full responsibility for your existence. This responsibility is not a burden but a privilege, an empowering choice that propels you towards a Resolute Life. Living a Resolute Life means adhering to a set of core values and ethics that guide your actions and decisions.

Embracing the contradictions of life


Life is rich with contradictions and complexities, and to embrace its fullness, you must accept these often contradictory elements as integral parts of your journey. The beauty of life lies in its diversity and the myriad experiences it offers. By embracing life in its entirety, you can increase your perception of the tangible and expand your awareness of the mysterious. This holistic approach allows you to see beyond the surface, to appreciate the deeper meanings and connections that weave the fabric of existence.


The Daily Life of Resolute Beings is dedicated to celebrating this diversity. It is a victorious embrace of the human condition – with its incongruities and idiosyncrasies. It is a salute to the balance of life brought by adopting the physical and meta-physical. It is a call to be brave enough to except your humanity and want to harness the full potential that comes with the acceptance of both the existential and ethereal.


This requires that you expand your perception of the tangible and your awareness of the mysterious. This involves developing a keen sense of observation, paying attention to the details and subtleties that often go unnoticed. It also means cultivating an open mind, being receptive to new ideas, perspectives, and experiences. Expanding perception and awareness allows you to see opportunities where others see obstacles, to find beauty in the mundane, and to connect with the deeper aspects of existence.


The Path to Abundance


The journey towards abundance is one of a changed mindset. Over time, the way you see yourself and the world changes. Sometimes aspects of our paradigm changes suddenly when a crisis forces us to grow quickly. Other times, change happen gradually, progressing towards a new, life-affirming mindset. This mindset includes the following beliefs.


  • Each individual holds a unique place in the world. This sense of worth might stem from religious beliefs, where one perceives themselves as a unique creation of God, or from an inner conviction that by reaching one's full potential, they become irreplaceable. Regardless of its origin, this belief underscores that every life has a distinct purpose.

  • The worth of an individual is not determined by wealth or status. The intrinsic value of every being is independent of external judgments. This belief emphasizes the inherent dignity and worth of each person.

  • Life is to be cherished and protected. It is essential to create a symbiotic existence, living in harmony with others and the environment. Those who share this value view exploitation for personal gain as inherently immoral. Protecting life, even from ourselves, is paramount. Pursuing one's purpose should never impede others from achieving theirs. Life can be uncompromising, unfair, and brutal, but this does not justify depleting others to sustain oneself.

  • Diversity should be embraced, celebrated, and defended, not feared, rejected, or destroyed. Everyone deserves equal treatment and opportunities, irrespective of race, ethnicity, sex, gender, religion, political views, status, physical characteristics, or abilities. This belief often requires standing up for oneself and for those who cannot fight for themselves.

  • Some truths are subjectively experienced, while others are absolute and indisputable. The only way to discern between them is through continuous and respectful dialogue, approaching differing worldviews with genuine openness and a desire to understand.


The benefits of Living a Resolute Life


A Resolute Life, grounded on the 3 Principles instils a profound sense of purpose and meaning in one's life. Living by a set of guiding principles helps individuals navigate the complexities of modern life with clarity and conviction. It serves as a moral compass, enabling you to make decisions that are aligned with the Resolute core beliefs and values. This alignment fosters a deep sense of fulfilment, as your actions are consistently congruent with your sense of identity and purpose. The predictability and reliability of such a lifestyle also engender trust and respect from others, creating a solid foundation for meaningful relationships and community engagement. The consistency in actions and decisions also reinforces personal integrity, ensuring that your character remains unshaken even in the face of adversity.


Living a Resolute Life offers numerous benefits that contribute to a well-rounded and fulfilling existence. Firstly, it cultivates inner peace, since it will be less likely to be plagued by internal conflicts or regrets stemming from unprincipled decisions. Secondly, it enhances focus and productivity, as clear priorities help prioritize actions and eliminate distractions. Thirdly, it fosters resilience, as a strong value system provides the strength to withstand challenges and setbacks. Fourthly, it promotes personal growth, as living by the 3 Principles often involves continuous self-reflection and improvement. Finally, it encourages altruism and empathy, because as a Resolute Being you will act in ways that benefit others and contribute positively to society. These benefits collectively help maintain a balanced and purposeful life, grounded in what truly matters.
