What's your philosophy?
 

What philosophy or code do you try to live by?

I am partial to these:

"Be professional, be polite, but have a plan to kill everyone you meet." — USMC Rules for Gunfighting #21

and

"Don't be late, don't be light and don't be last."

I've always liked,"Always Cheat, Always Win" Personally

"It never hurts to be polite to a man, especially when you intend to kill him."

"Keep your friends close, and your enemys closer"

"Don't give way to buses."

"My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute."
-- Ayn Rand

That just about sums it up for me.

I also like:

"I swear by my life and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine."
-- John Galt

I am suprised, Nothing at all about the persecution of heavy equipment;) LOL

Least he isn't a cheater.

True

Not quite the original, but the meaning comes out the same:

"You are better off keeping your mouth shut and just letting people think you are a fool, than opening your mouth and removing all doubt"

"Think before you talk yourself into stupidity"

Know what you are capable of, realize you are capable of more and learn something every day.

Kill them with kindness......I have learned that works like a charm.

Remember where you came from, don't shit on the little guy, because he will remember that on the way past you on the ladder.

"To every man, there comes in his lifetime, that special moment when he is figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered a chance to do a very special thing, unique to him and fitted to his talents;
What a tragedy if that moment should find him unprepared or unqualified for the work which would be his finest hour."

-Sir Winston Churchill

My philosophy about golf: I do not see any reason to expend any energy hitting anything with a club unless it screams or bleeds.

My philosophy when being interviewed to become a general's aide: I didn't go to school to be anyone's boot black.

My philosophy when querried about my lack of desire to serve on the Pentagon Joint Staff to enable me to be competitive in achieving general officer rank: The only time I would ever willingly wear a star is if I pumped gas for Texaco.

What Would NDD Do?

Be nice, until its time not to be nice.

From a former team mate;

What comes around goes around, and when its coming around for the second time, its usually moving a lot faster....

Words of wisdom right here!
 

My first trip was not "all of that".

My second trip was for keeps!

Re: What's your philosophy?
 

[after falling or hurting myself my mom would always ask me, when I was young] "Can you move it? ...you'll live"
that phrase shapes my life and outlook on how I get through shitty times.

Be patient and hit your objective when the time is right for you.
