Integrity

As we move along on our journey regardless of what is going on around us we all know and are committed, to a set of principles for how to live.  We embrace them and they are the building blocks of what we would call the high performance life.  We know many of them, respect, learning, patience, generosity, and of course integrity.  Integrity, the practice of being honest and showing consistent and uncompromising adherence to strong moral and ethical principles and values.  It is a state that we strive for – it is as the saying goes – what we do when no one is looking.  Having integrity is about inner strength and also about respect for ourselves and others.  We would not want to compromise on such a core element of who we are as we would then devolve to places unseemly.  And since it is truly up to us, individually, to have integrity, it is an easy, and admirable way to live.  The rewards are great on every level and the role model that we create one worth copying.
