You must also have trust in yourself. You know when you have done right and when you have done wrong. Live in such a way that you can respect yourself, and others will respect you, too.
YOU PROMISE TO HELP.' YOU CAN HELP BECAUSE YOU HAVE LEARNED HOW. YOU HELP BECAUSE YOU CARE ABOUT PEOPLE.
A Scout is loyal. A Scout is true to his family, friends, Scout leaders, school, and nation.
Loyalty starts at home. You show through your actions that your family can count on you. The success of your Scout troop and patrol also depends upon your loyalty and that of other Scouts as you support your leaders and pitch in to do your share of the work. Your loyalty to the ideals of your school can make the learning experience good for everyone. Express your loyalty to the United States by respecting the flag and government, and by participating in the democratic process. See where things can be made better and work toward that ideal. Our form of government allows each of us to voice our concerns and act within the system to make changes. Give real meaning to your loyalty by help- ing improve your community, state, and nation.
A Scout is helpful.
A Scout cares about other people. He willingly volunteers to help others without expecting payment or reward. You promise in the Scout Oath to help other people at all times. The Scout motto asks you to he prepared. The Scout slogan reminds you to do a Good Turn daily. These three ideals work together: you promise to help, you can help because you have learned how, and you do help because you care about people. Scouts want the best for everyone, and act to make that happen. While a Scout might work for pay, he does not exnect to receive monev for A being helpful. A Good Turn that is done in the hope of getting a tip or a favor is not a Good Turn at all.
