Rules of Engagement
“Not everyone deserves access.
Not every bond deserves flexibility.”
Rule 1:
We don’t talk in front of strangers.
Rule 2:
If we leave together,
we come back together.
Rule 3:
Take accountability
for breaking any rule.
Rule 4:
Learn and correct one another—
not criticize, not condemn,
not mock mistakes or ignorance.
This is not humorous.
Rule 5:
Share experiences, not opinions.
Share relative theories
with cited sources.
No social media posts.
Rule 6:
You represent the entire group
of your age, size, creed, and ethnicity.
You are a living advertisement
of God’s good grace.
Rule 7:
Be receptive
and less objective.
Rule 8:
More opportunity comes to the optimistic.
The pessimistic needs permission.
Remember—
There is always room to become someone’s boss.
You may play that part.
Accept the position.
