What's your mission, mantra or code of conduct? What's the goal (or goals) that you have at the start of a new day? Whatever your doctrine, philosophy, or ideology... the most important thing is to apply it and set your mission in motion.
During the 1930's and 40's, Lester Dent penned the adventures of the pulp fiction hero named Doc Savage - arguably the first "super" hero - even before the son of Krypton, Superman. Readers were encouraged to join the Doc Savage Club. Club membership included a copy of the Code of Doc Savage. They may seem somewhat trite today - but they still represent clear ideals and standards that challenge an individual to live up to.
What's your Code?
The Code of Doc Savage
Let me strive, every moment of my life, to make myself better and better, to the best of my ability, that all may profit by it.
Let me think of the right, and lend all my assistance to those who need it, with no regard for anything but justice.
Let me take what comes with a smile, without loss of courage.
Let me be considerate of my country, of my fellow citizens and my associates in everything I say and do.
Let me do right to all, and wrong no man.
