One of the things that first impressed me about Gretchen’s blog was her Twelve Commandments:

1. Be Gretchen. 

2. Let it go.

3. Act as I would feel.

4. Do it now.

5. Be polite and be fair.

6. Enjoy the process.

7. Spend out.

8. Identify the problem.

9. Lighten up.

10. Do what ought to be done.

11. No calculation.

12. There is only love.

She truly lives them.

What would yours be?
