14. Be steady with your breathing and strength.
15. Sink your inner Chi.
16. Be commanding with your fighting demeanor.

The below pictures come from a Wing Chun Facebook page. It seemed cool as it started off with relevant pictures to the Key, but then as the series went on, the pictures didn't seem to relate. For completeness sake, I've included all 17 pictures.
