Reflection

There are three simple steps that need to be taken to live with integrity. Just because they are simple does not mean that they are easy. One has to have the courage to say no. when someone tries to influence you into doing bad, you have to be courageous and deny the offer. It takes nerve to say no, but if you put your mind to it, it is possible. One also has to be brave enough to face the truth. This means that you have to be realistic about any circumstances. When you face a situation you have to accept the truth, because from there you can decide on doing what is right. The last thing that is required to live life with integrity is choosing the right. ALWAYS choose the right and make the right decisions. With these three keys one can live with complete honesty and honor.
