2. Realize that the most important thing you do is help people
grow, within the group framework of providing a service to the larger community. Look at each person who works for you in the light of what they want out of life, what they want to learn, what challenges they seek, and how you can help them face their challenges and win.

3. Respect the emotions and feelings of your people, but also
respect the inner needs that they have. Don't lose sight of your common goal.

4. Respect the vehicle that you have chosen. Run your business
according to principles, and communicate those principles to your
employees and customers. Your greatest communication is not by
words, but by examples. If you find yourself making decisions in the moment that are counter to your principles, chances are that you are being dishonest with yourself, and the decision is bad for the business and also for the people involved with you.

5. Respect and honor the channels of your good, which are
generally your customers and employees. But most of all respect
and honor the source of your good, which is God within yourself.

6. Seek unity in the face of challenges. Seek unity in your own
thought. Where things seems good and bad, rich and poor, find the underlying principle and make it your own.

7. Become non-resistant to your good. Don't hang on to old
ideas, people, relationships. Don't be so proud of past decisions that you try to apply them to new situations where they don't fit.

8. Whatever plan you have, God has a bigger one. Keep an eye out for it. Ray Kroc started franchising McDonalds so he could sell milkshake machines to the owners. God had a bigger plan. He listened. You should too.

9. Your greatest role as the business owner is to encourage
people to make intelligent decisions and act on them. You are God's wakeup call for your people. They in turn will remind you where you need to make decisions and grow.

10. You will be constantly tempted to give away your power of
choice and ask others to decide for you. Usually your justification will be 'to make the right decision and avoid error'. You should be careful and cautious, but you must make the final decisions, and you must make your own errors so that you can learn from them.

11. There will always be plenty of people willing to tell you
that you are doing it the wrong way. You can shape your creation with these doubts, but you can only build it on faith. You don't need to be angry or resist them, just tell them that they can go ruin a business of their own any time.

12. People will be entering and leaving your consciousness
constantly in the course of your business, as partners, prospects, customers, and employees. Bless them as they come, and bless them as they go. They cannot bring you anything that is not rightfully yours. They cannot take away anything that is rightfully yours.

13. Believe in yourself. Believe in your right to see the world
a certain way, and present the truth as you see it. If your vision
is clear, and you desire to help the world work with its problems,
then you will succeed, make money, and inspire others.
