14 PRINCIPLES AS SEEN BY ME

"J J DID TIE BUCKLE" based on USMC's 14 leadership traits with Equality instead of Enthusiasm as the last principle.

Justice

I believe in justice. If someone were to commit a crime, I would want to see him or her be treated to the fullest extent of the law. If someone does a good deed, I hope he or she will be rewarded accordingly.

Judgment

I believe in judgment. The judgment of people, works, or things, will be carry out as I see most reasonable in accordance with society.

Dependability

I am dependable. I will be wherever someone needs me to be as long as I know him or her. I will be more dependable when someone's life is at stake. I can accomplish anything which has been assigned to me knowing that it is my duty.

Initiative

I like to do things of my own free will even when everyone thinks I'm trying to kiss up to somebody. I like to tidy things up when it's a mess and no one else wants to take care of it. I like to make things happen by showing somebody to do things that he or she does not care about.

Decisiveness

I am decisive. I am swift. I am one who does not have much time to decide. I ensure that whatever I decide which happens to be at the spur of the moment is for the best; so, excuse me, if it's not your moment. I have the decision of a person who does not have much time to spare.

Tact

I talk only when appropriate. I cuss only when needed. I laugh at people when they truly do not mind. I lie on occasions to fulfill the purpose of preserving peace or preventing injury to someone.

Integrity

I have integrity. I tell things as it is. I own up to whatever I have done. I even take the responsibility of anything which I might have cause despite the fact that I have delegated someone else to accomplish the task.

Endurance

I like to ensure that I am physically fit. I run to keep my endurance at whatever stage it needs to be. I pace my run to keep me going without quitting.

Bearing

I like to smile or laugh whenever I want even at the funeral. I like to be stiff and quiet when everyone is supposed to do otherwise. I like to cuss and tease at whomever and whenever I feel the need to.

Unselfishness

I am unselfish. I like everyone to have whatever is mine as long as I can live without it. I will give if one does not steal and one does not make a habit out of receiving. I will give if I have more than I need.

Courage

I have the courage: the courage to lie when necessary despite the consequences; the courage to take advantage of people of any ethnicity; and the courage to die for whatever cause I believe in.

Knowledge

I thirst for knowledge. I believe in life-long education. I know only knowledge that helps me in my work or life.

Loyalty

I am loyal. I do whatever I am required to do according to society. I despise all criminals whether they be my boss or friends or even family, and I will let them choose to retire from criminal acts or to suffer from the consequences.

Equality

I believe in equality. I see everyone and everything as one. I put myself out to everyone and everything that need me. I treat everyone the same as I would treat myself.
