Here are some specific ways to develop integrity further. (read the list fast, return to it slowly. when something captures your attention, focus and develop that idea only).
* seize the courage to be yourself, considerate of others - but creater of your own life.
* Know what's happening right here, right now. Now is the only moment when you can bring integrity to life.
*listen to the small, still voice of your conscience - it's the lifeline to your integrity.
value consistency (rather than being the life of the party at the office and the sad sack at home)
* know that your deep seated beliefs will always write themselves acrtoss your face and shape your existence.
* be the best with those who you love most and with those who don't
* say no to what is wrong for you.
* let yhyself learn from all your experiences. value the lot.
* jusge yourself by your actions not by your good intentions.
* recognise that a sense of wholeness emerges through accepting your contradictions; your shadow and your light.
Be aware of what you are already doing that supports others and lifts the spirits. do more of it.
Be aware of what yoy are already doing that distances others or lowere their spirits. stop it.
It also helps to let yourself feel your emotions. you don't have to act them all out, but know what moves you. Respect that. And trust your insticts. You may want to question them. (sometimes theya re assumptions, not instincts.) But get to know what your strongest responses are telling you.
finally, but not least:
*speak up about what matters to you. Let things matter to you.
* pay attention to the small as mucha s the great.
* release resentment. It holds you back and keeps you small
* practise forgiveness
* look around at the universe of which you are a part. feel the wonder of it.
