Asatru... others can answer to.?

Question

what do you feel is either the most important virtue and which one do you have the most difficulty with. and why.
for those that arnt Asatru or can't remember all 9 ... a list

COURAGE
By facing Life's struggles with courage, we constantly extend our capabilities. Without courage, nothing else can be done!

TRUTH
Blind faith has no place in Asatru. No pie-in-the-sky; we must act in this world as we see it and as it really is rather than calmly wait for the next

HONOR
We must be true to what we are, and we insist on acting with nobility rather than baseness. Our standards must be banners held high in our hearts.

FIDELITY
We stand true to our faith and our values. Loyalty is the basis for all enduring human activity, and we hold it in the highest esteem.

HOSPITALITY
The isolation and loneliness of modern life is not necessary. The willingness to share what one has with ones' fellows, especially travelers, is a vital part of our way of life.

DISCIPLINE
We hold to the discipline necessary to fulfill our purpose. We stand willing to exercise the self-control and steadfastness necessary in these difficult times.

INDUSTRIOUSNESS
Let us dare to be all that we can be! Let us take risks and taste the richness of life. Passivity is for sheep. We refuse to be mere spectators in life.

SELF-RELIANCE
We depend on our own strength and character to achieve our goals. We seek only the freedom necessary to our quest, whatever it may be.

PERSEVERANCE
We hold to our path until its completion and are not ashamed to be strong. The cult of the anti-hero will find no support in us, and the gods we follow are not for the weak.

I find courage the most important. Without it its hard to be an asatruar.

Truth and discipline are things I have trouble with. Truth becuse of my enviornment, and Discipline becuse of bad habbits before i became Asatruar (I dont shame myself with being lazy, but I could do much better)

Answer 1

Probably discipline. Only with discipline you can follow and practice all the others. It's also the one i have the most trouble with.
Apart from that, honour. You are what you do, you are your words and your deeds.

Answer 2

I value truth the most because, as Billy Joel says "honesty is such a lonely word." That being said, I personally find that (self) discipline is the hardest virtue to practice.

Answer 3

I believe the most important would be courage. Without it we wouldn't be capable of doing anything. Hardest for me would be hospitality. I am naturally a loner and it is hard to have others in my home. I am working on it and have made some great strides in being more accepting of visitors.
Hail the Aesir! Hail the Venir!

Answer 4

TRUTH is the most important to me. Without truth, all other things seem irrelevant.

I would say hospitality is the hardest for me. This is probably from some bad experiences with people who claimed to be Asatru, but in fact had other beliefs and were only there to gather followers for their beliefs.

Answer 5

I have some problem with Hospitality, since there are not a lot of people who visit me directly or even know where I live, which is very isolated and sometimes hard to give directions to. I have gotten better at Perseverance, even though I am alone in my quest except for my father, who lives with me.

Answer 6

I believe Honour is most important, if you have honour you have most of the other virtues. I find Hospitality the hardest because I'm not a very good host, but I am trying.

Answer 7

As a Hellenic Polytheist I would have to say Honor and Fidelity are the most important on that list for me.

I would add another that is important in Hellenismos -- EUSEBIA (Piety) in word and action

The rest flow from the three I list.....

Answer 8

Honor

Answer 9

Self Reliance.

Answer 10

I'm tempted to say all of them, but the one I hold closest is fidelity. Staying true to my friends, my family and my faith helps everything else fall into place.

Hail the All-Father!
