Benjamin Franklin’s 13 principles of success.
- Temperance: Eat not dullness; drink not to elevation.
- Silence: Speak not but what may benefit others or yourself, avoid trifling conversation.
- Order: Let all your things have their places; let each part of your business have it’s time.
- Resolution: Resolve to perform what you ought; perform without fail what you resolve.
- Frugality: Make no expense but to do good to others or yourself; waste nothing.
- Industry: Lose no time; be always employed in something useful; cut off all unnecessary actions.
- Sincerity: Use no harmful deceit; think innocently and justly; and if you speak, speak accordingly.
- Justice: wrong none by doing injuries or omitting the benefits that are your duty.
- Moderation: Avoid extremes; forebear resenting injuries so much as you think they deserve.
- Cleanliness: Tolerate no uncleanness in body, clothes or habitation.
- Tranquility: Be not disturbed at trifles, nor at accidents.
- Chastity: Be chaste in matters with the opposite sex.
- Humility: Imitate Jesus and Socrates.
- Ben Franklin
