Personal values that each Lion should exemplify.

TO SHOW my faith in the worthiness of my vocation by

industrious application to the end that I may merit a reputation

for quality of service.

TO SEEK success and to demand all fair remuneration or profit

as my just due, but to accept no profit or success at the price of

my own self-respect lost because of unfair advantage taken or

because of questionable acts on my part.

TO REMEMBER that in building up my business it is not

necessary to tear down another’s; to be loyal to my clients or

customers and true to myself.

WHENEVER a doubt arises as to the right or ethics of my

position or action towards others, to resolve such doubt against

myself.

TO HOLD friendship as an end and not a means. To hold that

true friendship exists not on account of the service performed by

one to another, but that true friendship demands nothing but

accepts service in the spirit in which it is given.

ALWAYS bear in mind my obligations as a citizen to my nation,

my state and my community, and to give them my unswerving

loyalty in work, act and deed. To give them freely of my time,

labor and means.

TO AID others by giving my sympathy to those in distress, my aid

to the weak, and my substance to the needy.

TO BE CAREFUL with my criticism and liberal with my praise;

to build up and not destroy.
