It is said that who you are in life will be who you are in business and vise-versa. If you are someone who is respected in life and considered a person of stature, you will also be that in your business. Just the same with money….a poor man who inherits a million dollars will once again be a poor man, unless he first becomes the millionaire, and then inherits his millions. Who you are without money is who you will be with money, just richer.
In business, posture and integrity are everything. How someone views you as a leader, a businessman, a mentor, a merchant, and a person will directly reflect on your success. Now, I have seen some pretty shady people go into business and do really well at first. I attribute that to good planning. But as time goes on that persons business will eventually decay away and fall out from underneath him. I have seen it over and over. In my book, the honest, fair, and just will always prevail.
Always operate your business out of integrity at all costs, whether in your favor or not. Integrity is basically your abiltity or drive to “do the right thing” inspite of the ethical or personal distress it may cause. When faced with decisions, always do what is ethical. If and when you do this, you will find that your business will flourish. Others will trust you, confide in you, and depend on you to always act out of integrity. Being a leader means leading in your life as well. You must not only lead in business and success, but you must be an example of ethics and morality. Live in integrity not just sometimes, but ATT, All The Time.
