Integrity Matters!
Yes, Integrity matters and if it doesn’t matter to you, your life, family and career mean nothing. Especially in the world of Internet Marketing where so many wolves abound, it is time to be certain that what you are doing on line (or offline) in your business is inline with your personal values and what you stand for.
What legacy do you want to leave, one of life being all about you or one of life being about others?
What can you take with you when you die – absolutely nothing. What do you leave behind? Your legacy – how people remember you.
When my dad died suddenly at the age of 65, I was 27 years old and heartbroken. Dad was a simple man, a small entrepreneur in a small business – never wealthy or famous – but I knew him as one of the most kindest, loving people on earth. At 55, I still miss him and always will.
Dad was a first-generation American. Both of his parents came from Ireland on boats during the potato famine. And they were dirt poor. When his father died when my dad was 14, he had to drop out of school after 8th grade and start working to support his family. He never, ever, ever, ONCE, in his lifetime complained about that. I learned a LOT about integrity and not becoming a whiner from him. He was also one of the most incredibly self-educated men I have ever known and an absolute expert on history, especially the Civil War.
What amazed me, since we led a simple life (although my parents managed to send all THREE of us children, not only through college, but graduate school by sacrificing (an old time word you don’t hear much of today), was his funeral. We lived simply. Dad’s business, while it was running, was small – no millionaire was he – there were no grand parties, events, mega-vacations. But we were happy.
What amazed me, sad as I was in the funeral procession was looking back at the seemingly ENDLESS line of cars. It went on forever. I met people I never knew existed. But they all came out to pay their last respects to my dad. I had NO CLUE how many lives he had touched. To this day, I have never seen a funeral procession the likes of which followed my father to his eternal resting place.
WHY? Because he touched people and he touched them so deeply they HAD to pay him their last respects. WHY? Because he left a legacy – one which touched me and left and imprint on me forever.
Is Integrity important – in life, relationships and business…………………….you better believe it is.
