ESSENCE OF HUMANITY CREDO™ (followed by the song: An Outstanding Me)
The song, An Outstanding Me, expresses and defines 10 essential values that should guide the behavior of every human being, business, organization, and government on this planet. We call this philosophy the Essence Of Humanity Credo, and here’s why.
Observe, that in the entire history of the human race, no one who was firmly committed to the first five values – to be honest, decent, tolerant, progressive, and friendly – could have willfully committed any serious crime or inhumanity.
In the entire history of the human race, not one tiny advance of civilization could have occurred unless some human being somewhere practiced at least one of the second five values – to be intelligent, talented, creative, accomplished, and attractive.
By seeking and embracing these ten qualities, we believe one makes the most of being human. It is in tune with nature and reveals that all gain the opportunity to be outstanding when they take responsibility to make these precepts their own.
Though these ten traits have been respected for thousands of years and are familiar to most, they are still too often missing in too many. Also the perspective that all can best advance their own self-interest by following these values is often absent.
We believe this Credo can help attain maximum self-fulfillment for each and create a more rewarding world for all. We believe it also can be taught, especially to our young. We think most will agree that the more who practice this Credo, the better the world will be for all.
Following are the lyrics of An Outstanding Me. Note that the ten traits are arranged in the order one has most control over acquiring them.

AN OUTSTANDING ME
Lyrics by David Levene
Music by Mieszko Gorski
Sung by Michelle McFadden
How do I be an outstanding me
Strive to come fully alive
Reach my full potentiality
To gain peace, progress and prosperity.
This is what I must be:
HONEST – seek truth and honor in all I think and do.
DECENT – respect the rights and interests of others too, with
kindness and generosity showing through.
TOLERANT – give different opinions and origins their chance.
PROGRESSIVE – favor and advance constructive change.
FRIENDLY – like, enjoy, and appreciate people of a wide range.
INTELLIGENT – seek knowledge with an open mind, think smart
and apply what I know and find.
TALENTED – let my natural abilities get full respect, and direct
what I perfect.
CREATIVE – go beyond what has been set.
If I am ACCOMPLISHED, much gets done.
By making attributes appealing, ATTRACTIVE can be for everyone.
That’s how to be an outstanding me
Strive to bring these traits alive
Reach my full potentiality
To gain peace, progress, and prosperity.
If I strive to bring these traits alive
I can be an outstanding me.
I can be an outstanding me
And shape a more rewarding world for all to see.
Surely, then, the richer my life will be.
Yes – the richer my life will be
