I agree that these are applicable across the board but do not appear to be very new to me. IMO #1,#3 and #4 most applicable in effecting any great change and #2 being the force behind it. #5 Can easily be misinterpreted and taken to a level of obscenity. Truly I run the spectrum, not unlike anyone and everyone, my transparency can be taken as indiscretion and rightly so many times. I am not that high minded(or otherwise) to think I am at any degree higher or lower than my neighbor. My first responses were intended as light hearted ones in spite of myself.
