Commitment and self-control are inseparable
Author: Chuck Lucas
I am the Editor and Founder of https://principlesneverfail.us/ a blog dedicated to principle centered personal development. The social, intellectual, physical, and spirtual challenges facing individuals and the communities in which we live in 2020 and beyond will require the best that is within us. True principles anchor us to the truths previously discovered. We can move forward into the future with confidence on the correct path if we do not forsake the truths we already know.
My over 50 year quest has been to discover true principles and seek to understand and strive to apply them in my life. My hope is that some of what I have found may be of value to my family, friends, and to you.
Don’t ever set an unreasonable goal that you can’t keep.
Whatever you do, do not commit to something you can’t or won’t do. You can harm your character by making commitments you don’t keep. It becomes a habit, an ingrained characteristic . . . The idea is to push yourself, but no so much that you set up a pattern of failure. — Vaughn J. Featherstone
Make Magic
Make no small plans. They have no magic to stir men’s souls. ― Spencer W. Kimball
Procrastination
The principle of carry-over
When you overcome one fault, it becomes easier to overcome another. — Vaughn J. Featherstone
Small Tiny Efforts
You have to put in many, many, many tiny efforts that nobody sees or appreciates before you achieve anything worthwhile. — Brian Tracy
Don’t Believe Everything You Think

Prayer is a conduit through which we receive “instruction and intelligence” from Heaven. — Chuck Lucas
There is more than one way . . .
Don’t think there’s only one way to do anything because there isn’t. There are countless ways, and even now, depending on what it is you want to do, there are countless ways to do what you want to do that may not have been done before or may not have been done very often or frequently. ― Rush Limbaugh
The costs of inaction
Don’t just calculate the costs of taking action; calculate the costs of inaction. ― Darren Hardy
