CHAPTER 25

Integrity and belief.

Integrity is the small alignment between what you say and what you actually do. Belief is what holds when conditions don't.

PROMPT ONE

Where in your business have you been performing belief in something — to investors, to your team, to yourself — that you don't fully feel anymore?

PROMPT TWO

If you sat with your vision for an hour, without your inbox, without your investors, without your team, what would surface as actually yours versus borrowed?

PROMPT THREE

Where in the last twelve months has your integrity bent to keep someone else comfortable — and what did the bending cost you?

PROMPT FOUR

What's a hard conversation you've been avoiding with an investor, a co-founder, or a key advisor — because the cost of having it feels higher than the cost of not having it?

PROMPT FIVE

What's the version of yourself you'd become if you stopped trading integrity for comfort, and stopped letting belief waver under pressure from the loudest voice in the room?
