There are so many problems and issues which one can write about, you might think it is difficult to choose a topic. Quite simply it was not. I do not want to talk about philandering politicians, power-elites, or down fallen TV personalities: at least not directly. It should suffice to note there are morons everywhere. But, I want to discuss a characteristic which seems to be lacking these days. That characteristic is Integrity and I am personally obsessive about it.
Integrity, as defined by Merriam - Webster, is "firm adherence to a code of especially moral or artistic values: incorruptibility". Integrity means one does what one says they will do. For me, this has always meant if I said I will call you tomorrow, then I will call you tomorrow: no ifs and or buts.
Lately, I have experienced a lack of the display of integrity from some people I know well, and others I know socially. It hasn't been anything life shattering, just irritating. Simon Sinek lays it out beautifully in this short video. I urge you to watch it, reflect on it, and seek to understand. True integrity is a majestic thing!
I ask you to share this blog post with all your friends and acquaintances. Not because I think they lack integrity, but because I have a goal to reach a certain readership with my blog. Thanks!
All the Best,
Michael
