How To Pursue Wealth, Success And Happiness Whilst Staying True
By T.D. McKenzie
I’m not sure if my definition of integrity is one that is used by many other coaches and authors, but here it goes. Integrity in my book represents staying true to the deeper meaning of your life; by deeper meaning I refer to the purpose and values that make you who you are.Each one of us has a internal warning system that gets activated whenever we act or think in a way that is not in accordance with our own personal integrity. It can lay dormant within us for years without ever being triggered, however once we do it rings loud and clear. It gets triggered when we do something that is not in accordance with our values; often it’s the experience you have when you feel like you’ve sold out or betrayed someone close to you.
Many people rather than deal with their questionable choices eventually use substances such as alcohol, drugs, TV, exercise and even sex to numb themselves from the painful emotions that manifest as a result. This is why you will often find individuals who at the very peak of their success completely self destruct and virtually destroy everything they have achieved. A person who relentlessly climbs the ladder of success by doing things that they secretly abhor will eventually have to deal with the deeply painful feelings that manifest as a result.
But…it does not have to be that way; it’s still possible to have the success and happiness you desire in life without having to sell out your integrity in the process. It involves making clear choices about what you will and will not do; this can be greatly helped by having a clear understanding of your purpose together with knowing your true values in life. Without these two components it will be virtually impossible to maintain your integrity during challenging times.
What you will get from this is a clear understanding that “the ends do not justify the means” and you will feel a distinct sense of right and wrong as it relates to your particular life.
Will this mean that your life will be plain sailing from now on? No! Your values will constantly be challenged by people, events, and all manner of different circumstances, but you will be confident in the knowledge of who you are and what you stand for, and this will give you strength of character to pursue your dreams.
