Our Philosophy & Principles
Parker’s philosophy is rooted in the principles and beliefs established by our founder, Dr. James W. Parker. Dr. Parker created a set of principles, later known as the Parker Principles, that still serve as the foundation of our university and the relationships our graduates establish with patients and clients around the world. Service to others is the underlying theme for the Parker Principles and our institution believes that this focus begins with the students we serve.
What this means to you
Our attitude of service can be seen in every interaction with Parker University. Our admissions department strives to answer any and all prospective student questions. Faculty members work one-on-one with students to ensure key concepts are learned. The alumni association works to support our alumni by providing patient referrals, while student affairs provides on-campus support and activities for students.At Parker, students quickly learn the true meaning of one key Parker Principle: Loving service is my first technique. Parker students don’t learn about this principle in a textbook; they experience it every day as a Parker student and, subsequently, as a Parker alumnus.
Parker Principles
- Develop a compassion to serve that is greater than the compulsion to survive.
- Love is the magic bullet of healing. I can optimize my Mission, Talent, and Destiny (MTD) and attract the “naturally right” patients, people, places, things, events, and situations for me when I love each person as a mother, father, brother, sister, or child.
- If it is to be, it is up to me.
- Success is predetermined by my faith, confidence, and belief in my products, services, and ideas.
- I cannot communicate successfully and efficiently what I do not own.
- Do not let the negative few overrule the positive many.
- To be in harmony with my success, health, and happiness goals, I must act with love based upon free will and react with faith based upon God’s will.
- I will anticipate the good – even during the bad.
- To attract my Success, Health, and Happiness, I will eliminate fear of the future, worry over the past, and anxiety for the present.
- To eliminate fear, worry, and anxiety, I must live in the present and let go and let God.
- My ultimate purpose is to live in harmony with the universe. I can do so only when my mission is accomplished, my talents are developed, and my destiny is fulfilled.
- We see things as we are, not necessarily as they are.
- There is no philosophy by which I can do a thing if I think I cannot.
- Thought plus action equals feeling.
- My feelings attract my life to me.
- To heal remove “doubt” in both doctor and patient and instill “belief” in both doctor and patient.
- Seeing is not believing…believing is seeing.
- Loving service is my first technique.
- What I see in the universe sees me.
- Nature will give me what I act like I already have.
- Desarrolla una compasión por servir mayor que la compulsión por sobrevivir.
- Pensamiento más acción es sentimiento. Mis sentimientos atraen mi vida a mí.
- La naturaleza me dará lo que actúo como si ya tuvierao.
- Anticiparé el bien – aún durante el mal.
- No dejes que lo poco negativo anule lo mucho positivo.
- Si ha de ser, está de mí.
- No hay filosofía por cual yo pueda hacer una sola cosa, si es que pienso que no puedo.
- No puedo comunicar exitosa y eficazmente lo que no poseo. Desarrolla certeza en quien soy y lo que hago.
- El éxito está predeterminado por mi fe, confianza, y creencia en mis productos, servicios, e ideas.
- Ver no es creer…creer es ver.
- Vemos las cosas como nosotros somos, no necesariamente como ellas son.
- Lo que veo en el universo me ve a mi.
- Mi propósito último es vivir en harmonía con el universo. Puedo hacer esto solo cuando mi misión esta lograda, mis talentos están desarrollados, y mi destino esta realizado.
- Para ser en harmonía con mi objetivos de éxito, salud y felicidad, debo actuar con amor basado en libre volundad y reaccionar con fe basada en la voluntad de Dios.
- Para atraer mi éxito, salud y felicidad eliminare el temor por futuro, preocupación por pasado y ansiedad por el presente.
- Para eliminar temor, preocupación y ansiedad debo vivir en el presente y soltarme y ceder a Dios.
- Para sanar, remueve “duda” en ambos doctor y paciente e infunde “creencia” en ambos doctor y paciente.
- El amor es la bala mágica de sanar. Yo puedo optimizar mi misión, talento, y destino (MTD), y atraer los pacientes, gente, lugares, cosas, eventos y situaciones “naturalmente correctos” para mí, cuando amo a cada persona como madre, padre, hermano o niño.
- Amar servir es mi primera técnica.
