The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity. Without it, no real success is possible, whether it is on a section gang, a football field, in an army or in an office. – Dwight Eisenhower
I think a lot of us merely think about integrity as the honesty part of the definition.
An interesting second way to define integrity is: the state of being whole and undivided.
Part of having integrity is internal. Did we do what we committed to ourselves to do.
When we don’t meet our own standards, goals or ideals we become divided somehow. It creates a source of stress inside of us.
Integrity also comes as part of our dealings with others.
Do we do the right thing?
Jim Rohn summarizes this by saying "Do what is right all of the time, no matter what the costs."
We must develop this kind of "fanatical integrity" in ourselves in order to build the successful life we want to lead.
Make it a great day.
