I read a book in the fall and integrity came up related to following through on a health commitment.

That inspired my word choice for 2021.

For those that may not have been following me, instead of resolutions, I select a word to focus on for each new year. Usually a thought, reading or conversation will inspire my selection.

And the choice begins with a definition.

Integrity

noun

1. adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty.
2. the state of being whole, entire, or undiminished: to preserve the integrity of the empire.
3. a sound, unimpaired, or perfect condition: the integrity of a ship’s hull.

The intention I am setting for my 2021 word is to employ integrity when I make choices or decisions this year and ensure that they support my values and goals.

What is your word?
