Balance, the most important road to follow in the Eight Roads to Kingship refers to balancing what is within the self, and without.

To balance is to become balance.

Honor

<p style="margin-top:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'CenturyGothic',AppleGothic,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:normal;">Contentment, is to be satisfied with your lot in life, to know when is enough, and when to walk away. Material item can make you feel happy but it is only fleeting, when you die, you can not take them with you. Be satisfy with what you have and you feel content within the self.

<p style="margin-top:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'CenturyGothic',AppleGothic,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:normal;">Conscience

<p style="margin-top:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'CenturyGothic',AppleGothic,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:normal;">Conscience, is to do what is right, according to your feelings inside. If the action goes against the feeling then you are harming and hurting yourself, so strive to become conscientious in order to follow the right path that is best for you and others within your life.

<p style="margin-top:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'CenturyGothic',AppleGothic,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:normal;">Love

<p style="margin-top:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'CenturyGothic',AppleGothic,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:normal;">Love is to show caring, and compassion to all things, love the things you have, and do not have, your friends, family, your station, your achievements, love all that you see, and not forgetting to love yourself or the world, by doing so love will always be true.

<p style="margin-top:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'CenturyGothic',AppleGothic,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:normal;">Discipline

<p style="margin-top:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'CenturyGothic',AppleGothic,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:normal;">Discipline, is to do what is necessary despite not liking the hardship of it. It is to do despite the challenges and obstacles set forth by the self and the others. It is to gain control over oneself so that one does not sway from their chosen path in life.

Prioritization
<p style="margin-top:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'CenturyGothic',AppleGothic,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:normal;">Prioritization, is to separate what needs to be done, in manageable time. To do all that is required within a limit space of time. By doing so, work will not overload and you do not become unbalance.

<p style="margin-top:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'CenturyGothic',AppleGothic,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:normal;">The paths are here as guidelines, it is not needed to be followed in order to gain ruler ship over the self, but it is certainly a good way of becoming the leader of your own life.
