What does the word integrity mean to you?

It”s being honest and having strong moral principles…doing what’s right and keeping your word!!

Integrity is respect directed toward jurisprudence by doing the right thing regardless of the consequences.

Doing what is morally and physically right whether anyone knows or not. Always keeping your word

Integrity is moral fortitude that enables a person to do what is right. Doing what is right when you think someone is watching is not integrity. Knowing and doing what is right when no one is watching is the ultimate definition of integrity. People ask why I follow a moral compass when no one is looking? I explain that someone is watching... me and I have to live me with me.

Doing what is morally right, without hesitation or prejudice .

Integrity is to uphold the necessity of principle over the interests of self.

Always doing the right thing regardless if someone is watching or paying attention. Leading by example and setting the standard for others to follow.

Do the right thing, at the right time, regardless if others may be watching. Also, your word is your bond. If you say you’re going to accomplish a task, then finish it. Always do the best you can.

The easy answer is what we are taught in Basic:

"Doing the right thing, even when no one is looking."

But to me, Integrity is more than that. Integrity is being the guy or gal that others look to when they need a role model. It means being true to your word - even if situations change it it costs you more than you expected, whether that is time, money, effort, or patience. It means that rumors start flying, they either don't fly about you, or everyone immediately laughs and says "there is no way (s)he did that." Ultimately, integrity means that everyone you know knows that they can count on you. Rain or shine, day or night, 24/7/365.

Integrity means to me:

Even if everyone else is cheating on the test, you do the best you can with knowledge allowed.

Even if there are 3 or 3,000 bystanders, if someone is in need of help, you step up.

Even if you're the only person around for miles, you clean up your campsite and leave it cleaner than when you arrived.

Teaching your children to be a better person than you were raised to be.

Doing the right thing is just proper.

Integrity is ideal.
