Obedience
Quickly and cheerfully carrying out the direction of those who are responsible for me

vs. Willfulness

Wood Duck
Wood ducks are attentive to their parents' voices, even before they hatch. Twenty-four hours after hatching, they must obey their mother in jumping from their high nest, or they will perish.

I WILL:

  • Obey authorities immediately.

  • Have a cheerful attitude.

  • Fulfill expectations.

  • Don't complain.

  • Go the "extra mile."

    Quote
    "It has been well said that he who has never learned to obey cannot be a good commander."

    -Aristotle
