Code of conduct, the rules we make within ourselves to guide our personality is that which helps and directs us in all that we do and that which always constantly reminds us of that boundaries we must not cross no matter what ever circumstance we might find ourselves.

Codes are important in every individual’s life because as humans we must have that one moral that must make us different from other individuals but it’s very sad that things have changed so much in the world 🌎 due to too many desires. These desires are making people to change from doing the right thing their moral tells them.

Being honest with people in all that I do with them in the journey of life and keeping my dignity, which keeps my head standing up and tall is one code of conduct I enjoy so much. Why? Because being honest with people does not make us just good people but it leaves us with the feelings of being dignified . Having that self esteem, worthy of respect . And this code of conduct is one that certainly takes us far in life because people with honesty and dignity carries themselves too well.

I want to always be straightforward when dealing with people be it business or something personal because I need to have my peace ☮️ of mind at all times which is why being honest with them is my focus as a code I live for. A code I know that will make people see you as one with transparency and will always trust you. And I did not just acquire this code as an adult, but one I grew up with as a kid. My mother will always tell us that saying the truth will set you free even if you criticized but your mind will be at easy because you are not hiding from anyone.

And as an adult I made up my mind to live by honesty especially with the kind of world 🌎 we are in now. People tend to want to do something with those they trust which was why I mentioned earlier that honesty brings one dignity that will keep you going holding your heads up with confidence. I have met many people in the course of my work who will always say I love ❤️ dealing with honest people because we have lots of swindlers in Realtor fields where they tell the client white when its black. This tarnishes our images a lot, and because money 💰 is involved, people just went to get to the money not considering what dignity is all about. But life should not be lived this way.

However, sometimes situations and circumstances we encounter might lieu us into trying not to keep to our code of conduct , but its lifestyle we have chosen, a rule we decided within ourselves, so we should not allow circumstances to lieu us out from it. Good name they say is better than riches and this is what it all boils down to. Be honest and maintain your dignity because he who laugh 😂 last laugh 😂 best.
