Humility - To regard yourself as no better than others, to not be prideful, arrogant, or demanding of your own way. Service - Doing whatever you can to help others, regardless of how menial the task may be. Compassion - Feeling sorrow for the suffering of others and desiring to help them. Self-Discipline - To control one’s desires, actions, habits, etc. A Jedi Knight must have the self-discipline to train everyday and learn continuously in order to be ready to serve anyone at anytime. Patience - The ability to wait without complaint and endurance and perseverance in the performance of a task. Morality - Following the basic principles of right and wrong. Honesty - Jedi do not lie, steal or cheat. Forgiveness - Jedi do not hold grudges or desire that others be punished for wrong-doing, but instead forgive. Diplomacy - A Jedi must be skilled at dealing with different kinds of people, this means demonstrating respect and being tactful at all times. Leadership - A Jedi never knows when he will be called on to step up and take on the responsibility of leadership in some situation. This is where self-discipline and continuous learning will come in handy. Loyalty - A Jedi should be loyal to his fellow Jedi, the Jedi Council, his master, his padawan, and to following the will of the Force.
