June 30, 2002 - 1 John 3.14-18

1. Live in the present; you cannot change the past only influence the future.
2. Encourage goodness in others; show that you care by attitude, word and deed.
3. Have the courage to improve whatever can be made better, rather than accepting things as they are.
4. Treat all people as you would like to be treated.
5. Always respect the other person's intelligence, but never overestimate another's information.
6. Do what needs to be done today; finish what was not completed tomorrow.
7. Accept responsibility.
8. Seek an answer to every question, when there is no apparent answer learn to live with doubt until an answer may be found.
9. Take positive action whenever required; never wait for someone else to do what needs to be done.
10. Go the second mile to assure achievement of a goal or the completion of a project.

Follow up to make sure that the task is well done.
