When no one is around you, are you the same person?
Are you the same person that you present yourself to be when you are with others?
When we lack our integrity in life, we truly stop living. Our word means nothing because there's nothing substantial to back it up, we lose our relationships because people can't trust us and most importantly, we lose faith in our ability to do what we said we were going to do. Integrity is incredibly important and one of the most fundamental building blocks of life. When we lose our integrity, we lose ourselves.
Who could really trust us if we don't actually do what we said we are going to do? Could you even trust yourself? Not really. But isn't it incredibly how many people in this world seem to not care about their integrity?
So how can you live a life with integrity?
Do what you say you are going to do. It doesn't matter if you say it to yourself or to someone else, you must do what you have committed to. When you make promises, keep them. When you say that you are going to do "whatever it takes" to achieve something, stay in line with your words.
However, there are going to be times when we break our word. What do you do?
It's funny how quick people around us are to forgive when you're up-front and admit your mistakes. Nonetheless if you reject responsibility, people lose their respect for you and will continue to distrust you no matter what your reasons or excuses are.
It is a million times easier to be open and honest about your mistakes than to try to cover them up completely.
It's time to build some integrity in your life and begin to follow through with everything you say you're going to do. Your life will change, your relationships will thrive, and you will start moving forward quickly.
Because truly, without our integrity, we are nothing.
