others without insults or vituperation. This is not easy and you may loose your head along the way and say the wrong things to defend what's right, but your commitment to do what's right will help you realize new and better ways to handle all situations. You will be inspired to walk away from situations where you know the spiritual understanding is lacking, so rather than attacking people you are happy to let it go.

When it comes to doing what's right your thoughts and actions must be of an impersonal nature. Feeling guilty about telling the truth is unacceptable and will only delay your good from you. Always make sure that you are acting on behalf of the truth and not by what you heard or think may be true. Look into things and analyze them. The truth can never be hidden from those who seek it. When you believe in the power of goodness all is revealed to you step by step. I say this from personal experience. Last week I made a decision to do the right thing and confront a co-worker with my truth because I could no longer support this person's behavior. This person felt that because he was above my position, I had no say and must follow along without complaints. In my new universe that is not how life works, we are all equal no matter who the person is or what they do. All are responsible for doing what's right. At this point my tolerance level had run its course and continuing to put up with this person's ignorance of the truth of life was making me ill, so I had a choice to make. I knew that telling the truth to the people above him would mean risking being out of work and I also knew that I was not going to be supported because the people involved making decisions were more concerned about monetary rewards than doing the right thing. You see they don't believe that true success always comes from doing what's right and appropriate. In every major success story the original mission has always been a noble one to do what's right for humanity. However, once the wealth starts pouring in and ego driven individuals become involved pretending that they do care about the work when they really don't, all sorts of problems and situations begin to arise and eventually the empire collapses because the original vision has been lost.

So I did what my heart told me to do and I expressed all of my concerns about this person and to this person as well. My communication was direct and to the point, but compromising to this person's credibility and effectiveness as a manager.
