Success principle No. 3 is called Self-Acceptance

Honest Ori continuing the 10 psychobiological principles for living a satisfying life to age 120, based on an award-winning book I wrote and published.

Our psychology affects our biology. Healthy mind, healthy body. Following these principles ensures your holistic health.

Success principle No. 3 is called Self-Acceptance. Accept everything about yourself as it is right now and strive to continuously improve. While you might try to make small improvements, make peace with yourself including becoming aware of and accepting your strengths and weaknesses.

I am honest and tell people what I think, which may serve them better in the long run.

I graduated in the top 10 percent of my class at Stanford University. My results-oriented approach as part of an executive management team in Silicon Valley helped grow a company from 50 to 500 people in six years, despite my lack of tact.

Contrary to what an Oct. 10 letter writer said, I have some practical ideas that may transform the county government. They have been listed on my website since I became a “perennial candidate for mayor.” See mauitopia.org/Ori_Kopelman_Platform.html. I will add additional concrete, radical ideas before the election in 2020.

Einstein said that “no problem is ever solved in the same consciousness that was used to create it.” Meeting with the mayor or even mayor-elect and chair of the council as he suggests won’t help. They are bought-and-paid-for politicians. I raised no money.

A future letter will reveal psychobiological principles Nos. 4 to 10.
