benchmark in everything we do and every experience we create.

3) Be humble and willing to improve; None of us know all the answers, but through humility and willingness we can always improve.
4) Accountable to our environment and those less fortunate; Our legacy will be measured not by financial success, but by the positive impact we leave behind and impact we've had on others.
