Integrity in everything we do.

Integrity is a big word, and through the course of reading through the path I've felt it important to write somthing about this, as it's a core value that we should all hold. 

It goes hand in hand with honesty, they are both integral to living, you have to learn to be honest with yourself, this isn't by putting yourself down, but by acknowledge of things that could have been done differently.

So what does Integrity mean to you? And how do you apply it to your daily life? 

For me Integrity came as part of my work originally, it was a core fundamental of my job, but I had seen that it was treated as just another corporate word that people didn't really understand. When I made it part of my personal mission and goals to always act with Integrity everything for me changed. 

I apply it now as part of my core foundation it means that I always follow these steps: 

Be honest in everything I do, both with myself and with others. Tell people the truth of things. 

Own your mistakes, they are yours, these mistakes make up a huge part of who you are, learn from them and grow from them. 

Don't lie or hide the truth, make it part of your story, be true to your self in actions and reflections, could you have done somthing differently? 

Practice self control, spend time learning how to manage you! Through different techniques you are able to manage your emotions or anxiety and anger. 

Set your own personal values! Have a personal mission statement that you can use to define what you want to achive in life. 

Have you ever had your Integrity questioned? Maybe at work or in your personal life? How did you feel? 

Remember the core of the integrity test! As by applying these pillars to yourself and your life you will always be able to act with the best integrity.
