Principles are like foundational statements that serve as a secure perimeter wall in life that we want to live within. They serve us in decision-making, in understanding the right choice and determining what is the right or wrong thing to do in a moment.

There are many good examples of principles to be found across the online space. Here are just a sample:

• Thought before action;
• Give with the heart and expect nothing in return;
• Let go of what is not needed;
• Focus energy on the ‘controllables’;
• Listen truly to what they have to say;
• Rest is key;
• Invest in self, invest in others;
• Communication is the core of relationships;
• Live free of judgement; and
• Be true to oneself.
