It can be achieve through behavior in accordance with six virtues:

Honesty
Integriy
Respect

Citizenship

Being honest means choosing not to lie, steal, cheat, or deceive in any way. When you are honest, you build strength of character that will allow you to be of great service to God and others. You will be blessed with peace of mind and self-respect.

Closely associated with honesty is integrity. Integrity means thinking and doing what is right at all times, no matter what the consequences. When you have integrity, you are willing to live by your standards and beliefs even when no one is watching. Choose to live so that your thoughts and behavior are always in harmony with the gospel.

Integrity is about conduct; honesty is about adherence to the facts.

Honesty and integrity are co related terms. Honesty means the act of being honest to something or somebody. Honest means giving the actual and real facts. It means to say the truth and be free of any kind of bad vice. Honesty means to not to hide anything and be open about it. The act of honesty is always rewarded. People trust and respect a person who is honest to other people. Integrity on the other hand means abiding and supporting your morals and ethics. It means to be free of any malpractices. It means to treat others with humanism. People with no morals in life lack integrity. People only respect those who have a sound belief.
