To live by

The List

In the eighth grade, Chad's grandfather gave him a handwritten note — lessons learned in life, passed down. To truly be fulfilled it takes heart, soul, mind, and all your might. When we focus on just one, there is an empty void.

2. Love your neighbor as yourself.

3. Be honest and truthful — truthfulness builds trust.

4. Build a respectable reputation.

5. Remember — you and your life are an example to others.

6. Be happy and cheerful — life is great.

7. Develop and maintain a strong, healthy body and mind.

8. Give serious thought to your future career and life.

9. “To your own self be true.”
