15 Oct Integrity Principles 32: Cultivate Patience in Ethical Decision-Making
Patience is an often-overlooked aspect of integrity. Rushed decisions can lead to compromises in ethics. By practicing patience, you allow yourself the time needed to make thoughtful, principled choices.
To implement this principle:
• Pause Before Deciding: When faced with an important decision, take a step back and allow time for reflection.
• Gather All Information: Ensure that you have all relevant facts before making a decision.
• Consult Others: Seek advice from trusted colleagues or mentors to gain additional perspectives.
• Reflect on Decision-Making: After making a decision, reflect on how patience influenced the process and led to a more ethical outcome.
My Assignment: Write a blog post on the role of patience in ethical decision-making. Share an example of a time when waiting allowed you to make a more principled decision.
