Do we say
what we mean and mean what we say?
Examining how our thoughts, words and behaviors interact will reveal our
personal integrity.
How does our
integrity match to our goal’s results?
Do we act on our intentions and fulfill them? Do we keep our word to our ourselves and to
others? Do we stick to our New Years’
resolutions?
When we’re
not where we want to be, intention tampering is the cause. Whether our goals were knocked off course due
to outside interference or they were an inside job, mindful attention to our
intentions, was superseded by our lack of focus.
If we ask
ourselves a few basic questions before we set an intention, we can save
ourselves from corrupting our integrity.
Is our
intention obtainable?
- Do we have
enough support, skill and energy to carry it through to completion?
Is our
intention authentic?
- Do we
really want to achieve our goal? Is the
goal our goal or does it belong to someone else?
Is our
intention worth the effort?
- Do we
actually want to do whatever it takes to reach our goal? What will we have to release in order to
embrace?
If we
maintain true and consistent in our integrity, we save ourselves from the pain
of deceite, which results in fracture of our wholeness. The price we pay for disenfranchisement from
ourselves is a weaker connection with God and brings about feelings of unhappiness. But all of that can be turned around. We can find our way back to a stronger
connection to God and bring joy back to our lives through the power of
forgiveness, mindful intention and purposeful attention.
