4 Things Confident, Imperfect People Do To Keep Their Integrity

Have you ever answered something like, “Honey, I’m just around the corner, see you in three minutes,” when your mate calls you on your way home, but you’re actually about 10 minutes out? Guilty here.

A podcaster I heard talked about how we live in a culture where lying is the norm, though we honor integrity.

There are other areas where our integrity is questionable. How about loosing our temper and pretending it’s okay or justified. How can you navigate the challenge of growing and improving with integrity, while being an inherently flawed person?

4 Secrets for Perfectionists Who Want To Finally Enjoy Being Done

A friend of mine was being a wallflower because he couldn’t dance salsa. The truth is, he was taking lessons, had been for months, and did know how to dance. Clearly a struggling perfectionist who just needed to go for it anyway.

With a little encouragement, he was up on the dance floor doing the very thing he said he couldn’t. Perhaps little disjointed in his moves (don’t tell him I said that), but he was up there enjoying what he had been trying to get perfect, instead of waiting to be good at it before enjoying it. What are you trying to get just right?

Are You Stuck in a Mess You Made? So? Start Over!

I’ve messed up in everything from cooking a pot of rice, to nurturing a healthy marriage. What I’m about to say may sound calloused, but there’s no shame in letting go of the past, when you tried but really messed up.

Start over with a fresh pot of rice, there’s no use in torturing your taste buds. Start over in your relationships, once you know you’ve given it your all and you realize that parting ways in love may be the healthiest solution for all involved.
