The Sixties produced the Peace symbol.
The Sixties produced the Love movement.
The Sixties produced Rock ’n Roll.

 

I’ve decided to borrow the hippie phrase in a modified form – Gumption will replace Rock ’n Roll.

 

Why?

 

Peace, Love & Gumption simply describes the benefits one receives from living a gump-like life.

 

Here’s my thinking …

 

 

Peace

 

• Peace of mind
• Peace from what you do
• Peace in all your relationships

 

Love

 

• Love of self
• Love of doing
• Love of others

 

Gumption

 

• Responsibility for your thinking
• Responsibility for your behaviors
• Responsibility for your relationships

 

Wouldn’t the world be a better place if we all had more peace?
Wouldn’t the world be a better place if we all had more love?
Wouldn’t the world be a better place if we all had more Gumption?

 

Wouldn’t you like more peace?
Wouldn’t you like more love?
Wouldn’t you like more Gumption?
