  Lifestyle Choices

  A positive lifestyle choice is a way of life that
  people first select and plan for themselves.
  It enables them to develop the financial resources,
  flexible time schedules, meaningful relationships
  and personal activities that they consider to be
  important to their lives, or to their business.

  For some persons a lifestyle may consist of
  academics, travel or adventure.  For other
  persons, their lifestyle may be constrained due
  to health or other reasons.

  By living their lifestyle they experience the stress,
  convenience, recognition, rewards, pleasures,
  pains and emotions associated with what they 
  have chosen to do, or how they have chosen to
  live.

  Suitability

  A key concept in making a lifestyle choice is the
  idea of suitability.  Suitability is basically doing
  the right thing with the right tools for the right
  reasons.  The ethic of suitability is one of
  maintaining, or improving personal relationships
  that reinforce positive lifestyles and enable a
  person to adapt to the economics required by
  a negative lifestyle if there are no other positive
  choices available.


  Implementing Suitability

  The most effective way to develop and live a
  positive lifestyle choice is to MINIMIZE COSTS
  and AVOID LOSSES while taking advantage of
  reasonable opportunities in personal, career
  retirement, or other financial matters.

  The ability to communicate effectively is an
  essential requirement for living a positive lifestyle
  that maintains meaningful relationships in a
  positive environment.
