Let's start with a cricket story, something less preachy but still meaningful. As a #cricket fan from the 90’s, you cannot miss Adam #Gilchrist, the Aussie legend. He'd walk off the field if he nicked the ball, even before the umpire could decide. Whether umpire does his job properly or not, but that’s his principle. He was respected in his fraternity for his principle, do right! Dr V Narayanan, fondly called the ‘10-rupee doctor’ and eventually setup a hospital under his initiative — the Swami Vivekananda Medical Mission (SVMM) hospital — is known as the ‘10-rupee hospital’ in #Kerala’s tribal hamlet. A paediatrician by specialisation, doubles up as the physician for the people there. And the fee is for the patients to decide. His principle, do good! Mahadeva, an undertaker for Govt of #Karnataka believed that everyone deserves a decent burial. He was on the job for more than 40 years, and cremated more than 88,000 people. He took it upon himself to garland each body he buried and accord whatever respect that he could to the deceased. Although he was paid Rs. 200 for each body, he earned only Rs. 25 per body after covering all expenses required for burial. His principle, do karma with pride and prayers! #Integrity and #principles aren't about preaching; they're about personal choice and practicing it. When facing a dilemma, simply asking yourself if you can share your actions with family and the public without embarrassment is often enough. Understanding that principles define your #identity, losing them means losing yourself. Recent incidents involving young #professionals have been concerning, hence I see it as inevitable to convey thoughts through choice of words, sentence and anecdotes but hoping to present higher idea. Consider this: as a #SoftwareEngineer, when you walk away from that part-time #gig promise without knowledge of current employer, you did not lose anything. Your principles define your #niche, your #voice, and your #story. Lasting success comes from making principles a #lifestyle #choice, not just a checkbox. #moonlighting #gigwork #longtermism #perspectives
