The 4-way Test

Now this wasn’t just an ordinary pen. It was one of those cool “clicker” pens, where every time you push on the top of the pen a different message appears in its side window. In this case, the pen displays each of “The 4-Way Test” messages:

  1. Is it the TRUTH?
  2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
  3. Will it build GOOD WILL and BETTER RELATIONSHIPS?
  4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

That sounds to me like a pretty darn good model to guide your thoughts, words, and actions.
