One of the greatest challenges of living in today’s world is maintaining your integrity in an environment where irresponsibility appears to be increasingly normalised. We complain about corruption, dishonesty, indiscipline and the abuse of the public trust, yet some of us participate in the same behaviours we condemn. We criticise leaders who lie but sometimes lie to protect ourselves. We condemn corruption but may be willing to offer or accept a bribe when it benefits us. We demand accountability from others while making excuses for our own failures.
