ASB Board of Directors Commitments
By applying for the ASB Board of Directors, I _________________________ will delete two days
from my everyday week--- yesterday and tomorrow. Yesterday was to learn and tomorrow
will be the consequences of what I do today.
Today, and each day spent with other members of the ASB Board of Directors, we will face
the conviction that this day will not ever return. Today is the last opportunity to live intensely
with the group of supporters that surround me.
 Today in ASB I will be brave enough to not let any opportunity pass me by—we will
succeed as a group--- a family in Christ. A family that builds one another up, and does
not tear down.
 Today in ASB I will invest in my most valuable resource: my time, and my greatest
masterpiece—my life. I will spend each minute, trying to make today different and
unique.
 Today in ASB I will defy every obstacle that appears in my way trusting that I will
succeed.
 Today in ASB I will resist pessimism and conquer my world one step at a time with those
surrounding me.
16
 Today in ASB I will take the time to be happy and will leave my footprints and my
presence in the hearts of others.
Today, I invite you to begin a new season where we can dream that everything we
undertake is possible and we fulfill it with joy and dignity. I will take on this responsibility with
full force, knowing that other ASB Board of Directors are striving for the same goals. And,
above all, I will respect the confidentiality of the members and the lives they share with us on
a regular basis.
In the result of willful disobedience to any of these commitments,
I will be removed from the team, and/or have further consequences depending on my
actions.
