准则一：热切地开始当天的主要工作。
准则二：不要因为很忙或时间很少而牢骚，而是要每时每刻都最好地利用时间。
准则三：收到信函时绝不要发怨言。
准则四：绝不要夸大你的责任，仿佛你在肩负重担，而是要把所有的责任当成自由和快乐。
准则五：绝不要故意让人注意你的工作压力或微不足道的经历。
准则六：在把证据摆在某人面前或责备他之前，要先祈求神赐给你对犯错之人的真爱。要清楚明白事实；下判断时要宽容。要不然，你出于好意的责备可能会无效、很难理解，也许会触怒对方。
准则七：不要听信你听到的所有事；不要传播流言。
准则八：不要为了过去的服侍希求表扬、尊敬或看重。
准则九：当人不征求你的建议或看法，或者征求后放弃时，要避免抱怨。
准则十：绝不要让自己与别人相比时把自己显得更好。
准则十一：不要努力把谈话转移到你自己的需要和利益上。
准则十二：不要寻求眷顾或怜恤，也不要请求关心，但如果有人向你表达出这些，你要接受。
准则十三：要承担责备；不要推卸或转移责任。
准则十四：当别人因你的努力或主意得到赞扬时，要献上感恩。
