Integrity is commitment to ones own values, virtues, beliefs and conceptions about himself and the world.


One has integrity when they hold to their predetermined values.


If one does not do what he says he believes or values and acts in contradiction, then he does not have integrity.


If a man says he values freedom and acts like it, he is demonstrating integrity.


Integrity is holding fast to your pre-determined values.


One may say that they will not sleep with another who has been covid jabbed. When the opportunity arises to sleep with a beautiful woman who has been vaccinated, and yet they do not, this is a powerful display of integrity and builds a strong character by resisting temptation because one has a rationally designed hierarchy of values, valuing their word, their health and their integrity over risky short term pleasure.


How can someone be trusted if they demonstrate behaviour which shows they're a liar?

If a man said he was going to start eating healthy and exercising, but doesn't, consistently, he's showing that he lies to himself.

If a man says that he's in an unhappy marriage and wants a divorce, but then the next day he changes his mind, back and forth like a yo-yo, how is he of an integral character?

If a man says he really wants to travel, but then never does what it takes, yet always complains about being stuck, is this to be considered an honourable man who says what he means and does what he says?

If a man continued to work in politics because he had sold himself the lie 'it was to help the people' yet is presented with years of evidence he is not helping, what worth is this man who can not face the truth?

If a woman had become a lawyer and eaten the lie it was 'to make the world a better place' yet in reality only stole exorbitant amounts of money to facilitate her clients punishment, why would she be deserving of respect?

If someone is able to lie to themselves so easily, what's to stop them from lying to you?

A mans word is his bond, he's only as good as his word.

An internal realm of lies can get so overwhelming it spills out and helps to create a world of lies

The world has everything to lose from a man or woman who lies to themself, yet everything to gain from one who has integrity.

Dignity is built upon a foundation of truth and a foundation of truth is built by one having integrity.

A loss of dignity is made by an accumulation of a 1,000 tiny lies.

If ones words and actions don't match, they lack integrity and credibility.

One who has integrity is unwilling to compromise their internal honesty for any kind of external reward.

Integral men and women are so, because they deal in truth.

Have integrity, be honest with yourself and trust yourself by building confidence in your ability to always tell yourself the truth and to stand firm to your values.

If ones values are wrong or out of order, an integral man will modify his values to suit his level of consciousness.
