Cornerstones

Some time ago in another forum, I discussed 7 words that serve to guide my actions.  I like to refer to them as cornerstones.  They are simple words with straight-forward meaning.  Easily understood by many but applied to daily life with difficulty by most.  Though each impressively is able to stand alone, it is the relationship to each other and their eventual combination that truly unlocks the powerful influence on a life.

DISCIPLINE
FAITH
DETERMINATION
PERSEVERANCE
SACRIFICE
PATIENCE
LOYALTY
