Integrity

What is it about this word that makes it so powerful?  I think it is because it is all about how we act and behave, as opposed to others.  Words give power to images and images gives power to words.  When I picture integrity I see something that brings us true happiness, whether that is doing a job we love or behaving in a way that makes us feel really good.  Spending time with those we love or buying someone a coffee when they look like they have been through a hard time recently brings me true joy.

I know how touching something as simple as a coffee can be, plenty of people have shown me kindness when I needed it and at the time I don't think I even knew how much so.  Would I have recognised in others this need if I once did not need it myself?  Recently I have become even more aware of how much people need kind words, the busker who plays beautiful music and needs a coin or two for recognition and for payment and the dad who is going it alone and doing a great job.

I am pleased I have met these people recently because it makes my writing truer to who I am and what I really care about.  I have always had somewhat of a socialist spirit and no matter how hard I try it seems to be calling me louder and louder these days and I'm glad.  It is through my writing I can make things better, even if that is only a small difference.  To ease the pain and to make people laugh and not feel so alone is who I am, in business and at home.

At times I have struggled with the unfairness of life, now I know it is a lesson we need to make us appreciate life more.  It doesn't mean we like it, god I am the worlds worst, but I am certainly beginning to accept things a bit more.  The only reason this is happening though is because I have a family that loves me warts and all, I have incredible business women around me at Venus Network who inspire me and help me along the way and I have some incredible friends.

As Chief Copywriter, at www.quality-content-writing.com, it is really important to me to work with integrity.  When I clearly communicate to my clients and act with transparency and integrity, everyone benefits and learns some "insider essentials"!
