Babes!
What is one thing in your life that is a non-negotiable? For me, it is making my bed every single morning. Let's be real, that consists of putting my comforter back on the bed straight and placing my two pillows at the head of the bed. But, it is a non-negotiable for me.
I was listening to one of my favorite speakers, Eddie Pinero, talking about self-integrity. He stated that his non-negotiable is having zero dishes in the sink before he goes to bed. He explained that, yes, it might seem like a little thing, and that, yes, the world will continue to go on if he happens to leave a plate in the sink, BUT... he said that by missing just one night, it turns into two... then the sink gets full... then other parts of the house get messy... then even more parts get messy... then he is living in chaos.
Think about this, Babes! In the big scheme of things, this non-negotiable is about doing what he says he's going to do and doing it every single night. It's about being accountable to himself. It's about showing up for himself. Just like not leaving the house without making my bed is showing up for myself. It's doing what is important to me in that moment at 6:23 every single morning.
Integrity starts with self. It has zero to do with outside influences. It has nothing AT ALL to do with what other people are doing, or saying... it's about self. It's starts with me.
This week, we are going to talk about our vitals. And it's going to be important. Because it's about self. When our vitals are off, we are off. When we are off, our integrity is off. We should look at our integrity as a non-negotiable!
