Authentic. Formally defined as genuine, trustworthy, reliable, honest, and truthful.
In teaching, in collaborating, in my professional interactions, and in my personal life, I want to be authentic. This is part of my commitment to excellence and being the best I can be.
I want to be GENUINE, my true self. I want to be TRUSTWORTHY and HONEST in the way I present myself and in the way I deal with people. I want to be RELIABLE by following through with what I say, being true to my commitments, and being responsible with my time. I want to stand behind my word and be TRUTHFUL in communication and action.
Maybe you’ve seen the quote circulating the blog/Pinterest world – “If you’re your authentic self, you have no competition.” – Scott Stratten/@Unmarketing. Go out there and be your smart, successful, witty, personable, genuine, authentic self.
