And to become competent requires diligence and hard work. We owe it to all who have prepared the way and who will follow in our footsteps, to be good stewards of opportunities and resources. Thus, in all you do: set priorities, seek excellence and professionalism in your work, satisfy requirements, and take responsibility for your learning and performance. You cannot build competence if you lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large\"><b>Character<br \/> <\/b>A reputation of good character is built slowly through testing, yet can be destroyed in an instant by compromise or careless work, just as it can through injustice. Guard your character; it is worth more than a grade or promotion. \u201cA good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold\u201d (Proverbs 22:1).
