The Five Tenets of Tae Kwon Do: Integrity
Choose Right Over Wrong
"If you think that nobody will ever know about your dishonesty, someone will...YOU. Admitting to the truth of a matter, even if it means failure for you, is integrity. Know right from wrong and choose to do the right thing. Often, to uphold your integrity, you may have to stand alone for what you believe in. Integrity means being "integrated," knowing yourself and being yourself. Integrity is not about being perfect; we all make mistakes. It is learning from the mistakes that is important. Follow your highest values, and be good for your word."
