“Of all the values I hold dear, integrity is everything to me. I always thought it meant doing the right thing no matter what. But recently my friend Martha Beck deepened my understanding of what integrity really means. It’s about alignment. In order to find the truest expression of ourselves, we must be in alignment with the truth. Everyday things you do—telling little white lies, gossiping, not standing up for yourself—knock you off-balance. When you are out of alignment, your goals become more difficult to reach. The beauty of living with integrity means that life becomes simple: We never have to spend time or energy questioning ourselves, because our beliefs and actions work in perfect harmony.” —Oprah
