"I am caring for my body by a healthy lifestyle. I am caring for my mind and spirit by psychological work on myself when needed and by faithfulness to spiritual practices too. I do my best to keep my word, honor commitments, and follow through on the tasks I agree to do. I am making every effort to abide by standards of rigorous honesty, equity, and respect for diversity in all my dealings no matter how others act toward me."
"I forego taking advantage of others because of what I perceive as their lower status, or because of their weakness, neediness, misfortune, or their attachment to or idealizing of me. If I am in a position of power or authority I do not misuse it or become corrupted by it. My question is not "What can I get away with?" but "What is the right thing to do for all concerned?""
"I keep examining my conscience with true candor. I am taking searching inventories not only about how I may have harmed others, but also about how I may not have activated my potentials or shared my gifts, how I may still be holding on to prejudices or the need to retaliate, how I may still not be as loving, inclusive, and open as I can be."
Commit to caring for the body through a healthy lifestyle and to caring for the mind and spirit through psychological work and faithful spiritual practices. Keep one's word, honor commitments, and follow through on agreed tasks. Abide by rigorous standards of honesty, equity, and respect for diversity in all dealings regardless of others' behavior. Refuse to take advantage of others or misuse positions of power; prioritize what is right for all concerned. Regularly examine conscience with candor, inventory harms and unactivated potentials, and release prejudices and retaliation. Measure success by steadfast love and embrace transparency over appearances.
