- 29. 29 FOUR UNIQUE HUMAN ENDOWMENTS 1.1.SSelf-Awarenesself-Awareness We begin to become self-aware and explore the programs we are living out. We come to realize that we stand apart from our pro-gramming and can even examine it. We also realize that between stimulus and response, we have the freedom to choose. This self-awareness then leads to the ability to look at other unique endowments in our secret life.
- 30. 30 Our conscience isour internal sense of right and wrong, our “moral nature.” It is the “greater harmonizer” and “balance wheel” of all the principles that govern our behaviour. Our conscience gives us a sense of the degree to which our thoughts and actions are in harmony with our principles. 2.2. CConscienceonscience FOUR UNIQUE HUMAN ENDOWMENTS

It sets general guidelinesEnd in Mind. It sets general guidelines for our life based on our values and ourfor our life based on our values and our roles and goals. There are four basicroles and goals. There are four basic characteristics of good missioncharacteristics of good mission statements, whether they be personal,statements, whether they be personal, family, or organizational missionfamily, or organizational mission statements.statements. BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD MISSION STATEMENTS
- 34. 34 1. A missionstatement should be timeless and changeless. Because goals are not timeless, they should not be included. Mission state- ments should be based upon unchanging core principles that operate regardless of present realities or situations. This changeless core will enable us to live with changes inside other people and inside the environment. As our consciousness grows and we mature, we will gradually strengthen, deepen, and improve our mission statement. Nevertheless, we should always initially write our mission statement as if it will never BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD MISSION STATEMENTS
- 35. 35 2. A missionstatement should deal with both ends and means. Ends have to do with what we are about. Means have to do with how we go about achieving those ends. Principles are what we implements to achieve those ends. Ends and means are inseparable. In truth, ends preexist in the means. “You’ll never achieve a worthy end through unworthy means.” BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD MISSION STATEMENTS
- 36. 36 3. A missionstatement should deal with all four of our basic needs: a. To live (our physical and economic needs) b. To love and to be loved (our cultural and social ends) c. To learn (our needs to grow, develop, be recognized, and be useful) d. To leave a legacy (our spiritual need for meaning, for feeling that life matters, that we add value and make a difference. BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD MISSION STATEMENTS

A missionstatement should deal with all the significant roles of our life, such as a parent, teacher, manager, neighbour, and so forth. “Internalizing” our mission statement will also help us get a clear understanding of what is truly important. Goethe once said, “Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least.” This means that we learn how to say no at appropriate times. Every time we say yes to something that is of little or no importance, we are saying no to something that is more important. Almost every day, most of us are caught in circum- stances where we should say no but don’t. We often lack BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD MISSION STATEMENTS
