“These are the 3 magic keys to living your life with integrity:

1. Have the courage to say no.
2. Have the courage to face the truth.
3. Do the right things because it is right.”

W. Clement Stone

Reflection:

This quote is telling you the 3 things to do in order to have integrity in your life. First, is to have courage to say no which means knowing what is right and wrong and choosing to do the right and not wrong. Second, is to have courage to face the truth which means that you choose the right over wrong and it doesn’t matter how many people stand with you. Third, is to do the right thing because it is right which means that you are doing the right without expecting a reward in the end. An example for the first one is declining a cigarette if one of your friends were to offer one because you know it is bad. Also an example for the second one is stating that you broke something and not blaming it on anyone else or anything. Lastly and example for the third one is choosing to pick something up when dropped on the floor without expecting to keep it or get rewarded. If you have the three keys in your life ten you will live a happy life full of obedience. On the other hand if you choose to disobey then you will have consequences and will live a life without integrity. If you choose the right you will never have to worry about living a life full of integrity.
