• I won't seek the applause of men; only His.
• I'll react to people based on His reactions toward me.
• I will begin each day with Him.
• I will spend lots of time with Him.
• I will seek to know Him personally.
• I will seek to partner in His mission throughout my day; not just accomplish my mission.
• I will seek to honor Him with my heart, soul, mind, and strength.
