Do you do what’s right when no one’s watching?
What you just watched:
John Reynolds did what was right every time it mattered. He respected civilians when others didn’t. He earned his position instead of manipulating for it.
He even refused higher command because it conflicted with his principles.
And when the moment came at Gettysburg, he didn’t hesitate. He stepped forward, knowing the cost.
Integrity isn’t about words. It’s about choices, especially when no one is watching.
THINK
Integrity means standing by your values, even when it costs you something.
DISCUSS
(Choose one of these.)
1. Why do you think some people compromise their values, even when they know what is right?
2. Did you ever have to choose between doing what was easy and doing what was right? What happened?
3. What kind of reputation do you want to build, and what choices today will help you build it?
ACT
1. DO WHAT’S RIGHT—NOT WHAT’S EASY
Integrity shows up in small decisions before big ones.
2. EARN TRUST—DON’T DEMAND IT
People follow those they respect, not those who demand it.
3. STAND BY YOUR PRINCIPLES
Even when pressure rises, don’t change what you believe is right.
