  1. 2. Continually extend support frame.
  1. 3. Cultivate local agencies ­ Federal, State, Provincial supply systems
  1. (Nations don't know how to build delivery systems)
  2. 5. Participate in building global network.
  1. 6. Build Implementaries. Only staff can do this, not Consult
  1. 7. Grasp situation as single task with one team - not a "job" I have to do.
  1. 8. System of self-check. - Daily, weekly, etc. important - grading yourself.
  1. 9. The Gun - Outfit without a gun will never move - someone who decides to
    1. 10. "Move it, move it" and does not know what it means to succumb to fear.
    2. (Our No. 1 contradiction - we need a series of guns around the world)
    3. 12. Cooperate with nobody, yet use everybody, everything. - If start a committee, nothing will happen - don't report to underlings.
  2. 13. Principle of replication is there from the beginning. Make a decision about Timbuktu - no difference a place.
  1. 14. Stakes and Guilds are not in the document - but must have them, or won't work.
  1. 15. Local leadership - Always have a shadow - only reason why we are there is to train local leadership. Then you become his shadow - only have two years.
  1. 16. Be a miracle worker, - Miracle is doing the program in the book, a miracle every day.
  1. Tactical thinking. Not interested in goals (already realized) - key is contradictional thinking.
  1. Have a challenge, not problems. Contradictional thinking is the key.
  2. 18. Deal in groups individually. - Check with basic principles of social development; [example, know income of last year of each family to know if increased.]
  1. 19. Deal with Symbolism. - Profound change only done through symbols.
  1. 20. Xavierism - Do globe wherever you are (Xavier was Rome in Japan)
  1. 21. All, all at once. In the first week do every single program.
  1. 22. Transrational. - Battleplan each day - thought through to the bottom.
  1. 23. Nobody can do what we're doing without being a Religious Order. - It's done for the Glory of God.
    Religious is nothingness. - Try to be somebody, you're finished.
    1. 24. Bow to no man, only God.
      1. Key is Those Who Care. Obey God's will and do his mission - engagement with life.
    2. Care for Self. Order can't take care of you, spouse can't, etc. Let it go one day and it gets compounded. All this because we know so much. 
Without these principles, you're never going to move to Profound Love of God - the profound requirement to love our neighbors under the Cross. Going to heaven is only thing that matters.
