Small integrity prepares for large temptation.
LEADERSHIP
WHAT THIS MEANS
Nobody withstands a serious temptation by drawing on reserves they never built. The capacity comes from many small refusals in situations that barely counted, each one a little proof that you are someone who does not do this. Large temptations meet whatever that accumulation has produced.
Do not wait for a meaningful test to start caring about this. The unimportant instance in front of you today is the training, and it is the only training available.
