Targets to Shoot At-SJO 1939
1. Be myself, all that I would expect of others and be not too concerned about the opinions of others, except as they may apply to my case and I may profit by them.
2. Play no favorites. Give the same attention to and consideration of those in lowly station as the so-called higher ups, and that do without consideration of his attitude toward me.
3. Give my family every opportunity that is within my power without depriving them of the privilege of striving for themselves. Try to leave each a legacy of a healthy body and mind, an independent spirit and love for the truth and virtue; to be a good father and husband in every way that the work implies.
4. Be more attentive, in detail, in business, church and personal matters, avoiding ‘flock shot’ methods and following thru on everything that I begin.
5. Take a more positive stand toward those who have taken my merchandise and labor and have failed to pay for it--who have betrayed confidence and friendship. Demand and attempt to enforce payment from those whom I have accommodated, being charitable toward those whose circumstances have been beyond their control and doing all in my power to assist them to work out from under their obligations so acquired.
6. Seek out the blessing behind each seeming misfortune and never allow grief from present and past misfortunes to stand in the way of future opportunities.
7. Cherish the love of my fellowmen and the love of God, above everything of an earthly nature, placing a premium on REAL values of life, here and hereafter.
8. Standing for peace with honor in a vicious world and ever praying and working for and teaching for the might that comes with right.
9. Maintain, if possible, adequate life insurance and other assets, that my wife and other dependents may not be burdened with debt when I shall leave them. It is my hope that when I am no longer with them, that a spirit of cooperation will exist between them and that they will never neglect each other and the memory of their mother and dad, who have striven for them.
