Establish a life charter

I'm picking a rule, with a sub-rule from Refuse to Regain (by Barbara Berkeley, MD) to write about. My opinions are my own, your experience may vary.  I would highly recommend the book.

Rule 1, step 3: Develop a Life Charter.

It took me awhile to establish my life charter. Mine did not jump out at me; I developed my charter over time. I like how in the book, Barbara states " My plan is utterly portable and has become second nature".  I like this because

1. My life is pretty dynamic, so portability is key. 
2.  My life in weight maintenance mode is a whole different ball game than my past attempts at maintenance, so second nature is required.

Okay here it goes:

1. Eat Primal/Paleo at structured times, 
2. Walk the hills with my camera, 
3.  Sleep more and stress less.
4.  Good Coffee, Good Friends, our Families, and  my Higher Power will get me through

I find I can apply that template to my days and my life right now.  It works. Feel free to discuss in the comment section below.
