How to Be a Person of Integrity
Becoming a person of integrity is not as hard as you might think, because you can improve your personality by adopting the traits that not only matter to you, but to others as well. Being a person of integrity means that you are honest with yourself and with the people you interact with. Honesty should be reflected through your character no matter what field you work in. There are so many things you might be ignoring which can make your personality admirable. You do not have to seek outside help to check your level of integrity because you can observe it just by looking at what you do on a daily basis.

1
Avoid things that lead to dishonesty
Being dishonest is a drag on your personality and it is one of the hurdles you might face in your quest to improve your character. A person who has integrity usually avoids lying and their behaviour is not superficial. If you are not being fair with others, you cannot be fair with yourself, because after all, what goes around comes around. -
2
Learn to speak the truth
Speaking the truth may seem like a very hard thing in some situations, but if you commit yourself to this golden trait, you can become a person of integrity. Speaking the truth not only glorifies you, but it also makes others think that you are honest with the world no matter how tough things get. -

Confess your wrongdoings
Confessing your wrongdoings does not hurt yours or anybody’s feelings; rather, it just makes your personality better. You may find it hard to accept your mistakes and wrongdoings, but the reward is much better as you get a chance to learn from your mistakes and learn how to live like a good person in society. If you have made a mistake, vow not to repeat it again. -
4
Appreciate others
Learn to appreciate others and if you find it hard to swallow the success of someone close to you, you should know that you need to learn to co-exist with them. Being a person of integrity does not just mean that you are true to yourself; being true to others is what actually makes your character admirable. -
5
Do not be jealous of others
Being jealous has become a common problem in today’s world, and most of the time it does not strike us as something bad. However, it becomes grim when you look at it from the perspective of the person you feel jealous of.
