If I were writing the CV of my life, would I be truly honest about my skills? Sure, I'd put down making a mean chilli sauce and cutting a great rug to Tainted Love - but would I also add "well practised in being unreliable" and "top scorer in the self-ghosting league"? 😅

Integrity used to be like a solid old oak table in the middle of the family home. Something to lean on. Always there. Now it's more of a running buffet - pick what suits you, depending on the get-out clause you need at the time.

But here's the truth. The biggest casualty of the Integrity Buffet is usually ourselves.

We ghost and gaslight ourselves with micro excuses. We say we'll do things we know we won't. And slowly - quietly - we start to lose faith in ourselves.

As Mark Manson put it, an underrated cheat code in life is being incredibly reliable. No cape required.

My simple integrity boosters: ✅

Show up on time
Do what you say you will (the rest is hot air)
Own your mistakes
Be realistic about what you can do
Don't say yes just to look good

The payback? You feel more confident. You know your limits. You feel authentic. No more masking, excusing, or performing "good person" - you'll just be one.

Being in integrity means being your word. If you're not your word - then who are you? 💛
