Defining integrity
“Integrity is always doing the right thing, even if nobody is
watching.”
“Integrity is telling myself the truth. And honesty is telling the
truth to other people.”
-Spencer Johnson
“If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything.“
- Mark Twain
"Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the
rest.“
- Mark Twain
"I am different from [George] Washington; I have a higher, grander
standard of principle. Washington could not lie. I can lie, but I
won't.“
- Mark Twain

KEEPING COMMITMENTS
Make agreements consciously: I’m going to accept
Eric’s invitation to join his study group because it will help
me get better grades.
Use Creator language: I will attend all study group
meetings and come prepared.
Make agreements important: I’ll send an email to
each study group member with my commitment.
Create a plan; carry it out: I’ll put each meeting on
my calendar.
Renegotiate: If I'm unable to attend a meeting, I’ll ask if
others are willing to change the date.
