"Integrity"

She don't really drink much so she say
But by the way she was putting in the Malibu Reds away
She was either 'bout that life
Tryna front but tryna get right
Or maybe she work hard, everyday, at her job
And she feel like she deserve to turn up tonight
Either way, miss lady bad as a Toblerone sugar rush
I drew her near, whispered in her ear
"I think that I'm developing a little crush"
She said "Nice try, but every short skirt that done walked by has successfully caught your eye
No thanks but I'm sure that you're a nice guy"
Damn, I had no reply, cause she was right
Newly single so I've been a little thirsty
She was more than just a booty in a skirt she
Walked a way I caught up to her in a hurry
I said "Can I at least know your name before your dead me"
She turned around and said "My name's integrity"
Integrity, can you answer this for me

Baby where do you wanna go?
I'll do what you say
She puttin' it to the top
She said take me all the way
Matter of fact I'll meet you there
Woah, now I'm feelin' love

Oh Integrity
I think that I need you and me babe
And me babe
Integrity, damn

"Your Self Esteem"

There really is not that much difference between a spectacularly successful person and a dismal failure. But the little difference there is, is crucial. And the difference is self esteem. People who succeed are people who believe in themselves and value themselves. Successful people value their own time and they don’t waste it. They value their health and they don’t fill their bodies up with poison.

A well developed self esteem creates a confidence that enables successful people to avoid wasteful conflicts with others. Successful people sincerely respect and value other people, and that trait alone draws success to them like a magnet.

People who believe in themselves are willing to take responsibility for themselves. The losers in life blame their troubles on someone else, and by so doing they give control of their lives to others. I see so much of this, and it is painful to watch. People who refuse to take responsibility for their own lives are always frustrated and depressed. They are professional victims.

Success does not take a long time to achieve. In fact, you can go from failure to success in an instant. All in takes is an attitude adjustment. All it takes is a willingness to believe in yourself and to take responsibility for yourself. As soon as you can do that, then you are a success. You may not have a lot of money or fame or whatever, but that really doesn’t matter. Because once you are truly successful, once you sincerely take responsibility for your own life, you can have whatever it is you want.

Nothing make you successful if success is not inside of you. Love the person you are enough to give love and respect to others, and your achievements will be unlimited.

"Your Integrity"

The quality of your life is ultimately determined by the integrity of your actions. It is always in your best interest to act with integrity. It may seem that doing what is right would sometimes call for a sacrifice on your part, would sometimes demand that you act against your own interest. Indeed, there are sacrifices to be made. However, you never sacrifice your own interest when you act with integrity. It is always, ultimately, the better choice for you and for everyone concerned.

Integrity is a word that gets thrown around in many different situations. Literally, integrity means wholeness, soundness or completeness. In the case of personal development, integrity means being true to the highest and best that is within you. So by very definition, the integrity with which you live and act is closely connected to fulfillment of your most deeply held purpose.

Integrity means discovering your own unique set of skills and abilities, and using them to achieve maximum benefit for yourself, your world, and those around you. It means finding what you do best, and doing it with all the commitment and energy you can muster. There is no better path to success and accomplishment than this.

As a strategy for successful living, integrity cuts right to the heart of the matter. For what higher success could there be than to fulfill your own incredible possibilities? Living with integrity is arguably the number one strategy for success in life. It is the success strategy that makes all other success strategies possible.

Too often we see integrity as something that we “should” practice out of a sense of guilt, in order to “be good” in the eyes of others. In short, we identify integrity with having to conform to some value system that resides outside ourselves, when actually integrity is the practice of conforming to a value system that is an integral part of our higher self.

There is in everyone, even the worst scoundrel, a desire to be happy. But what is happiness? It is more than mere pleasure. People who chase pleasure and expect to find happiness are never fully satisfied. There’s more to it than that. True happiness comes when you are doing something that brings genuine fulfillment.

Anything undertaken without integrity, no matter how extensive or impressive the results, always carries a certain amount of emptiness. The most meaningful rewards in life are found in the doing, not in the having. An Olympic gold medal might be worth a few hundred dollars as a collector’s item. Yet to the athlete who won it, it is priceless, not because of its intrinsic value but because of the effort and true achievement that it represents.

Achievement is something that everyone agrees is valuable and desirable. But have you ever considered why?
