YEAR OF ZEN: SPRING: DAY 66

Q: Are compassion, honesty, generosity, and moral wakefulness part of your life? What are three arenas where you encounter your ethical principles?

A: This is the great project of my life: bringing myself into continual alignment with the ethical principles of compassion, honesty, generosity, and moral wakefulness. Areas where I encounter these principles include:

1. Interactions with my family and friends (the area where these principles are most important, I think).

2. With colleagues at work and the users we serve. As a leader, I know my actions set a tone and example for others.

3. With myself. If I am not acting kindly and ethically with myself, how will I with others?
