Values.
What are some morals you live by?
Not ones deriving from religion...just those that are usually left "unsaid".
For example, one would be:
don't speak badly of anyone.
Can someone provide me with more?

My personal code.
Keep your word whenever humanly possible.
Friends are family and family are friends. Protect both.
Strive to understand those around you.
Do not throw the first insult or punch.
Trust given is precious. Treasure it, and those that give it to you.
Be openminded to new people, experiences, etc.
Never hurt those worse off than you are.
Strive for balance in all aspects of your life.

I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but I'll tell you what I feel are my morals. Most are family/marriage oriented, because my family is my world.
I spent enough time getting to know my husband in the years before marriage to know he was the one for me. I vowed my life to him. That is that.
Every relationship you have in this life (parents, siblings, friends, significant others, etc.) is a two-way street. You have to meet in the middle for things to work out. You can't do it all yourself, nor can you expect sit and let someone else to do it all for you.
We raise our kids, our kids don't raise us. Being a child's authority is NOT a bad thing- it is the RIGHT thing. How else will they learn right from wrong, good from bad?
A child's biggest and best teacher in this life is their parents. They learn from what you say and what you do. Make sure they are learning GOOD lessons.
A child learns how to maintain a relationship from their parents.
I WANT a Corvette, but my kids come first. ALWAYS. I NEED a new pair of shoes, but my kids come first. ALWAYS.
Kids- #1. Period.
I don't believe that money is the root of all evil, but greed is. We pretty much have to have money to survive, but revolving your life around money is unhealthy. You can't buy happiness, no matter how hard you try.
Never say you CAN'T achieve goals in life. CAN'T never DID.
I don't fight about that which isn't worth fighting over. The thing people most often fight over is money. That is sad. Why? It is material, replaceable.
I'm not above others, but I can strive to be above their actions.
You create your own monsters. If you give your child everything they want growing up, you have no place to complain when they expect you to hand them their life on a silver platter, feeding them from a silver spoon.
Misery loves company. Avoid miserable people if you can't help them be happy. Otherwise, they will only get you down.
Cruelty to others doesn't really make you feel better about yourself- kindness to others does. Doing something with the intent of helping others always makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside.
Your actions always have some sort of consequence. Think before acting- can you handle the consequences?
This is 8 miles long, so I will end with an oldie, but goodie:
If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen. In other words, if YOU can't eat it, don't dish it.

Treat Others The Way You Would Want To Be Treated.
[The Golden Rule]
Jesus is in everyone so love everyone like they are Jesus
God says let's meet at my house on Sunday before the game.
If we were to have a religion class, would you pass?
If God had a wallet, your picture would be in it.
If you don't feel close to God, guess who moved?
Yesterday was the Past. Today will be forgotten tomorrow. Live in the present because it is your gift.
What part of thou shall not don't you understand?
Why worry. God has it under control
Bible means Basic instruction before leaving Earth.
God's gifts are never loans, they are deposits.
Good Luck:]

I always live by "Reep what you sow", which means to always finish what you started. I think this is very important to have a successful life.
I know you wanted a couple, so I searched it and found a few: "The Golden Rule" (I don't know about this one; you know what they say, whoever has the gold makes the rules, but it's base is still good); "Never judge others, even if you have walked a mile in their shoes" (I have to say that I rarely follow this one, but apparently some do); "Forgive and forget"; "Always know there are two sides of the story"; "Never cheat, lie or steal"; "Accept the apologies of others"; "Admit when you have made a mistake".
Have a nice day.

My favorites would have to be:
What goes around comes around
Lies always catch up with you
Don't count your chickens before they hatch
Always trust your first instinct
