Simplicity

• Do I always speak the truth?
• Do I say things as they are or as I want them to be?
• What causes me to conceal or hide something from another?

Gentleness

• Do I try to resolve conflicts with gentleness?
• Do I know when to be gentle and to be forceful
• Do I know how to temper my anger so to be gentle in a given situation?

Humility

• Do I recognize the truth of who I am?
• Do I protect myself by intimidating others?
• Do I cause others to be on the defensive?
• Do I treat people as well as I think I  should?

Mortification

• How do I define mortification
• When was the last time I gave up something good to do something better?
• How do I experience mortification in my daily life?

Zeal
