Integrity

A quick breakdown of this word leaves me nothing to write about. Integrity.
Inter and Gritty.

Inter for sequence that works together. The time line that establishes a persons integrity.

Gritty for the little things about ourself, The things we say. The code we live by. How we are with others. All the little things about us that show over time.

Well that's all I have for breaking down integrity, my mind is elsewhere on things it seems.

How do you measure integrity? Can it be measured in a moment? Does a % work with integrity? Can someone be 75% of good integrity?

To save you going to google here is a definition.

Integrity is the practice of being honest and showing a consistent and uncompromising adherence to strong moral and ethical principles and values. In ethics, integrity is regarded as the honesty and truthfulness or accuracy of one's actions.

Well My actions are not always fulfilling of my intention or of my actions. Many a time I have been asked to bring something back from the shop and I have failed to do so. Asked to paint a room I never got to. Planned to do something did not do it, plum forgot or was too lazy.

I remember one time I should have went to work. But, I went to Manchester instead.

I appear to be off to a bad start with Integrity. One thing is for sure. Do not ask me to pick anything up from the shop you are really wanting. Send me to Walmart for milk I might just come back with a new toy. Or everything else but the milk.

Feels like I am scoring low on the integrity ladder.

I do have an Ace up my sleeve. I think this Ace is a great card to hold. I have only just come across it too, Maybe there are other cards up my sleeve I do not know about yet too. Reminds me of a song with poker mentioned in it. An old song and I bet ye 0.001 Steem the majority of you are thinking the gambler.

Buzz! wrong answer
The song I am thinking about is from Chris de burgh Spanish Train.

The railway man he cut the cards
and dealt them each a hand of five.
For the lord he was praying hard
or that train he'd have to drive.
The Devil he had 3 Aces and a king
and the Lord he was running for a straight.
He had the Queen and the Knave the 9 and 10 of spades.
All he needed was the 8.
The Lord he called for one more card
but he drew the diamond 8.
The Devil said to the Son of God.
I believe you got it straight.

Maybe I make myself look like the devil here too holding cards up my sleeve. Others perceptions I cannot control. Maybe I could try influence their opinion of my integrity by not saying some things.

So what is this Ace I hold?
The new Ticket from Hive account@yeswecan You will have to read that post to know Quick guide to the Ticket 90M up for grabs, how much could you carry?

Should this Ticket hit the big one. There will be parties all over the world. This Ticket will be divided among subscribers to Hive account@yeswecan I think then, people would say "He has integrity". The win is needed first before this can happen. Maybe the same thing could happen by division of even a smaller amount.

Since I came to the Steem Chain and then the Discord channels that came live. I have said the same thing over and over. That I am about Equality. A belief in the reduction to the cost of living is better than bringing more up to a level that they can cover costs. Raising people up to a level, makes us all poorer.. reducing the cost to living enriches your pocket.

That is what I would like to see happen on a global scale. Steem could be the way to make it happen. I have not veered from the ambition of equality and reduction to living costs. I have at times adapted how to move forward. At times I have been a bit slack, All of the time I have spent on the Steem chain has been to create a finance to begin something else.

I think this post show my honesty. It also states some of my core moral values. With time it will show if my words hold any Integrity at all.

With all this said, that is a personal view of my integrity how everyone else will view my integrity. Time will reveal as it ticks on.
