Principle IX: A Triskelion is a family man. He takes care of his family.
Explanation: Means a Triskelion provides food, housing and education to his family. If he has more than one family, he has to provide the same for all of them. It also means providing love to his family like dating his partner in life, taking her out to movies, taking kids to basketball, etc. For a young Triskelion, that means respecting your parents like being polite to them, helping in the house, does his homework, etc.
Principle X: Physical Fitness: A Triskelion takes care of his physical body and his looks.

Principle XVI: A Triskelion shall use other people’s money to further his agenda. But he pays back what he borrows.
Explanation: Borrowing other people’s money and investing it wisely is a multiplier of your financial capacity. Pay back what you owe so the money will be there the next time you need it.
Principle XVII: Delegation. A Triskelion shall use other people to further his agenda. This is includes hiring, influencing, delegating other people to attain your goal.
Explanation: Get other people to supplement the skills you do not have. Surround yourself with specialists. A Triskelion is the brain, the one who determines what is to be done and tells it to his subordinates, his appendages. A Triskelion is the employer, not the employee.

Principle XX: A Triskelion helps another Triskelion in need and expects nothing back.
Explanation: A Triskelion helps a brod in need and when that brod in need overcomes his problem, he will help other brods in the same situation he was originally in. And this should be in the spirit of the Frat as we are Brothers.
Principle XXI: A Triskelion learns from his mistakes and he never commit it twice.

Note:
We decide, we know the right to wrong
and life is a matter of choice. When you think that you can you're right.
And If you think that you cannot you're also right.
