Dakota you know what i did at the, suggestion of someone, was i took one slogan/saying and wrote it out and broke it down and defined it to my own understanding in detail. then i tried to practice it through out the day and week. then it sorta became a habit, with some effort, and then as time went on i would catch myself just acting on it. its like it just became a part of me, and i realized i had grown. "only through understanding and application"
