15. In 2005 President Uchtdorf, a former commercial pilot, compared Christlike Attributes to the wind and force that are required to fly a plane...
Hold up a piece of paper, and let it fall to the floor. Then fold it into a paper airplane, and throw it softly so it flies. Compare the change in the sheet of paper to our acquiring Christlike attributes that will “create the wind beneath our wings” for the journey back to our heavenly home.

16. Christlike attributes are the basics
Christlike attributes are the basics. They are the fundamental principles that will create “the wind beneath our wings.” As we develop Christlike attributes in our own lives, step-by-step, they will “bear [us] up as on eagles’ wings” (D&C 124:18).
Our faith in Jesus Christ will provide power and a strong forward thrust; our unwavering and active hope will provide a powerful upward lift. Both faith and hope will carry us across oceans of temptations, over mountains of afflictions, and bring us safely back to our eternal home and destination.
As spirit children of our Heavenly Father, we do have the potential to incorporate Christlike attributes into our life and character.
President Uchtdorf

17. Re-evaluate Our Lives Regularly... Rely On Repentance
In seeking to become more like the Savior, we need to reevaluate our lives regularly and rely, through the path of true repentance, upon the merits of Jesus Christ and the blessings of His Atonement. (President Deiter Uchtdorf)
Re-evaluate Our Lives Regularly... Rely On Repentance

18. Jesus exemplified characteristics such as faith, hope, charity, patience, humility, purity, diligence, & obedience. As we learn of Him and seek to develop His attributes, we will become the women He & our Heavenly Father would like us to be.
