In Part 1 & Part 2 I painted a picture of looking at integrity as a core value in your life.
I discussed how our lives work when we are walking our talk and when we’re not. If you read both posts, you probably related in some way to the points raised?
Here’s where the rubber meets the road. In other words, today’s post is an exercise I assign to coaching clients who are working with integrity. Take a look and see what you’d like to work with by writing out the questions on a separate piece of paper.
Exercises: Please respond to the following questions and statements.
Where is my life “ in integrity” now? How do I know/see this? (Evidence)

Restoring Integrity:
On a separate piece of paper make two columns. Identify 10 specific items, habits, actions, or activities that you know keep you out of integrity. (ideas? – wrong job, debt, misrepresenting yourself, abusing your body, unhealthy relationships, living in fear, over-promising results, compromising safety, addiction or compulsive/destructive behavior).
Out of Integrity                                       Action needed/Solution
Approach this as an exercise that will help you gain clarity and make some commitments to yourself that will bring you back home to who you are. Being true and living authentically will bring you greater abundance, happiness, and peace inside of YOU and in all areas of your life!
