The Authenticity Habit
“Authenticity is everything! You have to wake up every day and look in the mirror, and you want to be proud of the person who’s looking back at you. And you can only do that if you’re being honest with yourself and being a person of high character. You have an opportunity every single day to write that story of your life.” ~ Aaron Rodgers

The Truth Will Set You Free…
You’ve heard this your whole life.
But it is hard to know what is true, factual, and absolutely authentic.
Fake news, fake photos, fake people…
They live to deceive.
Which, they believe gives them power.
In fact, the opposite is true.
“I know of nothing more valuable, when it comes to the all-important virtue of authenticity,
than simply being who you are.” ~ Charles R. Swindoll
The Authenticity Habit is All-Powerful.
I found this perfect definition of authenticity in an article on Psychology Today written by Dr. Steven Joseph…
Authenticity is highly valued: On the whole, we don’t like or trust people who come across as phony and false. Not surprisingly, we avoid such people. We seek friends and colleagues who are authentic.
Authenticity is important, but what exactly do we mean by the term?
Often we judge a person’s authenticity by the passion and commitment they have for what they say and do. For sure, part of being authentic is standing up for what you believe in and speaking the truth as it seems to you, even if it is not what others want to hear.
However, the question is, authentic to what?
People can be committed to and passionate about lots of things, but this by itself is not enough. Authenticity is more than when someone believes in what they say or acts in a way that is consistent with their beliefs. An inauthentic person is equally able to stand up and say what they truly believe. We ought not to judge authenticity purely by the passion a person has for what they say. The more important part of the authenticity question is to look at the character of the person. What’s behind what they say?
Humanistic psychologists would say that by definition, authentic people possess a number of common characteristics that show they are psychologically mature and fully functioning as human beings. They…
- Have realistic perceptions of reality.
- Are accepting of themselves and of other people.
- Are thoughtful.
- Have a non-hostile sense of humor.
- Are able to express their emotions freely and clearly.
- Are open to learning from their mistakes.
- Understand their motivations.
We would see these characteristics as traits of High TQ Performance.
Purpose-driven…
Mission-focused…
Goals-centered…
Honest, trustworthy, action-oriented, positive, optimistic, self-directed, strong, committed, the list is endless and is amply revealed as the Performance Positives above the TQ Thin Line.

If you find that you are living with more Negatives than Positives, the natural tendency is to FAKE it until you MAKE it.
This may work for a while, but the longer you fake it, the more disingenuous you become.
And you drifter further away from real success.
And stay locked in the downward spiral where faking it becomes your norm and opportunity never knocks.
Only the authentic get the big breaks, as opportunity only knocks on the door of those who are true to themselves and others.
Without question, you grow AUTHENTICITY every time you boost your COLOR power. We see this as a positive habit to be cultivated rather than just an aspirational hope…
The Power of TQ is all-inclusive, recognizing that true success is in your heart… your head… and your hands. It is the SOURCE of all leadership.
It’s about the power of habits that control our lives, 24x7x365.
