A Quote by Stephen R. Covey on assumptions, mind, body, heart, and spirit

I have also found that by making four simple assumptions in our lives we can immediately begin leading a more balanced, integrated, powerful life. They are simple–one for each part of our nature–but I promise you that if you do them consistently, you will find a new wellspring of strength and integrity to draw on when you need it most.

1) For the body–assume you've had a heart attack; now live accordingly.

2) For the mind–assume the half-life of your profession is two years; now prepare accordingly.

3) For the heart–assume everything you say about another, they can overhear; now speak accordingly.

4) For the spirit–assume you have a one-on-one visit with your Creator every quarter; now live accordingly.

i was looking and contemplating this covey saying:

4) For the spirit–assume you have a one-on-one visit with your Creator every quarter; now live accordingly.

Think he refers to the Seasons nature gave us by Solstices and Equinoxes …

Maybe this even works better if we refer to the ::D (day) in 4 fractals, i offer:
Dawn, Day, Twilightzone & Night
and see them as parallel to the seasons Spring, Summer, Fall & Winter …

and only the winter is 1 - one … as in:
7771 … which refers to 77::71 and is a numerical representation to
Quetzalcoatl Kukulkan

according to the conversion rules i practise as usefull
and coherent …
