The Zegarelli Credo

Arnold and Robert Zegarelli – The Zegarelli Brothers

We believe the following twelve suggestions are the major keys to success and fulfillment. If you believe in them and you live your life accordingly, you will achieve a positive realization of any worthy goal and be happy in the process. Thank you for caring.  Arnold and Robert Zegarelli

I. Be Yourself.  Understand who and what you are.  Learn to recognize your strengths and weaknesses.  Strive for constant improvement.  But, most of all, accept yourself for whatever you are.

II. Visualize Your Desired Self-Image.  Believe that you can achieve the image and lifestyle you desire, then work to make it happen.

III. Exercise Self-Discipline.  Be consistent in your efforts, even though, at times, it may be difficult and painful.

IV. Maintain a Positive, Enthusiastic, Mental Attitude.  Look for advantages in every situation, then try to eliminate as many of the negatives as you can.

V. Develop Your Mind, Body and Soul.  Try to stay healthy and balanced in all things.  Two great factors of life are growth and decay.  When things stop growing, they begin to die.

VI. Understand Where You Have Been.  Learn from your experiences so that you can better plan your future.

VII. Decide Where You Are Going.  Set up definite long-range goals, then establish the short-range steps that must first be achieved to reach your long-range goals.

VIII. Know Your Priorities.  Put things in their order of importance to you.  Eliminate the unnecessary and organize the essential.  Simplicity in life discourages strife.

IX. Compromise When You Must, But Try to Minimize Your Losses.  Try to get all of the facts and correct information before making any decision of importance.

X. Respond, Don’t React.  Try to stay calm and look for the real reason if ever someone tries to hurt you or throw you on the defensive.  That which is not weak does not have to defend itself.  Its strength lies in its truth.

XI. Are You Willing to Pay the Price for Your Goals?  Each goal demands a price.  Evaluate your motivation, determination, time, energy and the sacrifices you must make to achieve that goal.  Most goals in life are trade-offs — you trade-off one thing for another.

XII. Respect the Other Person’s Point of View.  Try to treat others the way they wish to be treated.  Remember that each person views a situation from their own world and not yours.  Remember, also, that you are only here for short while.  Live each day with love of yourself, your fellow man, but, most of all, your God.  Remember that a little perfume always clings to the hand of a person who offers another a flower.
