I love your list... it's like a checklist for how I aspire to live.
The problem for me is that there are not many people who think these things are important, or they don't care to see the sense in aspiring for this outlook - even when it may improve their situations or outlook. (This is a generalised statement, but I've come to the TFP as I am an alien in my community because I think about these things in great length and try to apply it my own life, so from my perspective this generalised statment is generally accurate).
Why is it that only a few people find this sort of thing valuable?
