My head is hurting. It's a Monday and for most of us, that means start of the week's work. Staring at the screen is triggering my nausea but I can't just let that hinder the start of the work week. Work is a responsibility, a commitment. Necessary, mandatory. Some people would argue, put your self first. Work is just work. It's not worth sacrificing yourself on. How about integrity though? What is integrity worth? And isn't pulling through on what you have committed to, being responsible knowing that others rely on you, doing your work, a practice of integrity?
Is pride not considered a value anymore? Something archaic and outdated? I feel conflicted by this. I still standby what is right. Just do what is right; if you feel it is not right, don't do it. I still trust my judgment. And I think my wisdom has shown once I allowed myself to be responsible. So no, I do not think putting yourself is always right. You still have to know where your values lie. And I will not let go of mine.
My values:
- Integrity - responsibility, honesty, excellence
- Strength - patience, perseverance, resilience
- Wisdom - kindness, humility, gratitude, joy
Gaudium in Sapientia
Ductus a Integritate
