What does being congruent mean?

Let's look at an example of Mahatma Gandhi At one point in his life, he was invited to speak before the House of Commons in England. Using no notes, he spoke for two hours and brought an essentially hostile audience to a rousing standing ovation. Following his speech, some reporters approached his secretary, Mahadev Desai, incredulous that Gandhi could mesmerize his audience for such a long time with no notes.

"What Gandhi thinks, what he feels, what he says, and what he does are all the same. He does not need notes...you and I, we think one thing, feel another, say a third, and do a fourth, so we need notes and files to keep track.

Not only was Gandhi congruent within himself, he was also congruent with the principles he stood for. Not only did he have roots, he had a taproot that plunged deep into the reservoir of timeless principles that govern in life.

Amazing, isn't it? Most of us lack not only congruency, but humility and courage. Those are the three pillars for establishing integrity. Tune in and let's begin the process of reestablishing our integrity.
