Personal Mission statement

Currently I am reading Stephen Covey’s 7 habits of Highly Effective People. I liked the idea of preparing a Personal Mission statement. Although there are principles and values in life, that I live by. It would be good to write them down. Because sometimes, I find myself ‘getting seduced by the dark side’, doing things that generate conflict within & breaking my values. So writing them down will, kind of, assure them.
