In this episode, we remember that Integrity is inescapable. That is true IF you really want power. External power lasts for a time and comes from money, position, and even force. That is always temporary, even if it lasts for some years. Dictators and tyrants are perfect examples of this truth.
Closer to home, What is the truth that people say behind your back? Do you have the real power? That only comes from respect and not from force. People know who you really are because we carry the energy of our BEing-ness. There is no way to fool people, even if they pretend to be your face. You cannot escape the requirement of integrity if you want true lasting power that brings results.
In this episode, we talk about how we really are. What I mean is that the way we do one thing is the way we do everything. Some people pretend that they can be one way at work and another way at home. Or one way with one group of people and another way with others. This is a lie. It never works.
The only thing you are probing is that you are a fake. You put on a show for the folks you are with. Some live their lives that way and it is miserable. I know because I used to live like that. It never lasts and it is certainly not fun. It is a miserable existence and causes you to lose your bearing because you don’t even know who you are anymore. Your duplicity becomes your defining characteristic.
