INTEGRITY

in Steem4Nigeria13 days ago

Hello everyone 😊, first of all I would love to thank the moderator @sahmie of this wonderful community like steem 4 Nigeria for organizing sure a wonderful contest like this and me participating in this amazing contest like INTEGRITY is a dream come true 🤠.

  • For me Integrity means doing the right thing when no one is watching, It’s the gap between what you say and what you actually do, for a human to have integrity in your life it means that human you are ready to do the right thing at all time, some individuals like doing what is right only when people are watching them and in a hidden place there display their main character,
    For me integrity don't need pretense it means during the right thing at all times.

What does it mean to be "true to yourself"?

Being true to yourself is living in a way that matches who you really are on the inside, not who others expect you to be, in life we all need to be true to our selves, because if you're not true to yourself it's your push you to do wrong things in life because you are also deceiving yourself.

It’s about knowing what you genuinely want instead of chasing what looks good or pleases everyone else. If you prefer quiet evenings over loud gatherings, you choose the quiet without feeling guilty, and it needs us not to follow what people do or say you have to tell yourself the truth and follow the truth.

and also It’s also about acting on your own values, even when it’s uncomfortable. If honesty matters to you, you speak it. If kindness matters, you don’t stay silent when someone is being hurt, and most of it all, it’s about dropping the mask. Stop pretending to be someone you’re not just to fit in or get approval. The real you is enough, for me this doesn’t mean ignoring others or being selfish. It means you’re no longer betraying yourself to keep the peace.

It’s not always easy, and some people might not like the real you at first. But the peace that comes with it is worth it.
And today I would like to advise all my fellow honourable steemians that we all should be true to ourselves.

Why is it important for people to keep their promises?
Keeping your promises matters because trust is built on them.
For me we keeping our promises keeps a relationship longer ❤️
When you say you’ll do something and you do it, people know they can count on you. Friends, family, everyone relaxes around someone reliable. Break promises too often and people stop believing you, even when you’re telling the truth.

It shows respect for other people’s time and feelings, if everyone keeps their promises they'll attract respect for yourself because people love when we are being sincere and honest, in my life I don't like breaking a promise that I made because I believe that if I break any of it I will lose the respect that people have for me.
Every time you keep a promise, even a small one like “I’ll be there at 3,” you train yourself to follow through. Over time you become the kind of person who finishes what they start. Break them often and you start not trusting yourself either.

Keeping promises It’s not about being perfect. Sometimes things come up and you can’t keep a promise. The important part is owning it early, explaining, and making it right. That keeps the trust intact.

What's the difference between being honest and being nice?
In my own term be honest is about telling the truth at all times I'm being nice about protecting someone feelings, honesty is the way to success because if we are all honest in every thing that we do in life we will susceed, and being nice 👍 to people at all times we use it to clear a good way for ourselves because in life honestly without RESPECT is nonsense even the lord God said it that we should be nice and honest to people that all times,

according to my knowledge the two can't do without each other.

You need both if you want real relationships. Truth without care pushes people away. Care without truth leaves things fake.

If your friend asked you to lie for them to get out of trouble, would you do it? Why or why not?
Before considering to lie for anyone's freedom, even my closest friend it depends on the type and kind of crime he/she committed,

because no body is above the constitution of my country Nigeria 🇳🇬 but if I know that what he/she does is not intentional I will lie 🤥 and go to confession at my church St JAMES CHATHOLIC church, because I in life we have forgivable offences and unforgivable offence.
