Coven on Integrity

Covey, pp. 63-64 of The Speed of Trust; The One Thing That Changes Everything (New York: The Free Press, 2006), gives us another component of integrity, humility:

A humble person is more concerned about what is right than about being right, about acting on good ideas than about having the ideas, about embracing new truth than defending outdated position, about building the team than exalting self, about recognizing contribution than being recognized for making it. (p. 63)

It's not about weaknesses, it's about putting principle ahead of self. People into putting themselves first, I don't trust them, do you?

The point of all of this is to create more skilled entrepreneurs. Is it working?

Entrepreneurship is the life's blood of all my professional activities. It makes them go. It informs my connection strategy. For my ideas on connection strategy, go to my new blog www.Connecting.blogspot.com.

It makes Your Stop for Real Estate, my real estate referral business, go. See www.yourstopforrealestate.blogspot.com.

It powers my writing. Go to www.kearneymusicschoolmurders.blogspot.com for my ideas on writing and where you can read my mystery for free, download it for free or buy it from Amazon.com more cheaply than you can print it.
