Our achievements are shaped by the terrain of our lives and the strength of the foundation we set. In building the life we’ve imagined, we must be true to our beliefs, dare to be ethical, and strive to be honorable. For integrity is the highest ground to which we can aspire.
In reaching our goals it is of the utmost importance to maintain our integrity. For what profit is achievement if we fail to maintain our integrity. It is no profit at all, for without integrity it does not matter what you have. Without integrity our achievements may be remembered, but we certainly will not be remembered in a positive light. Lets that a case in point of Benedict Arnold. Benedict Arnold was more than likely a great general, but he was not remembered for the achievements he obtained in battle. He was membered as a traitor and in fact his name has become synonyms with the word traitor.
