The Ort Principle
 
A man who believes he’s a pig will act like a pig.
 
A pig who believes he’s a man will act like a man.
 
In reality though, each is as God made him.
 
Thus the Ort Principle:
 
What you believe will not change what you are
 
 (not one i”ort”a)
 
but it will affect the way you live your life.
