The Key to Success

Understanding

I believe that first and foremost, a movement must have an understanding of itself, as well as its purpose and goals. This goes not only for the leadership, but for its membership as well. In my opinion, this basic understanding must be the creation of a new nation for our people beginning with the creation of local communities networking together. We must understand that the basic building block of a nation is the community, and only by building new communities and influencing existing communities can we have the required foundation for our survival.

Focus

Once there is an understanding, we must have focus. Without being focused we will never know in which direction we must go. To start becoming focused we must understand the very foundation that we need to build. This is the family and the community. The family is the core of the every community. Without the family to reproduce future generations, a community will age and die out. But without the community, a family is alone and lacks a reinforced support base that is needed in times of crisis. We must focus on bettering our families so that we can better our communities which in turn will better our country.

Direction

Everything is doomed without a direction to go in. We must march forward in one direction, united under an idea. This direction will only be known by being focused and having an understanding.

Destination

What is the point of a Direction without a destination? This is why I also believe we must have goals both short term and long-term. This also shows progress among the organisation. Our short term goals will be different for each local community in practice but the long term goal of Integralism remains the same.

Personal foundation

The leaders should not and cannot lead an organisation without having a personal foundation for themselves. We see too often beggars trying to become mini-fuehrer’s. Those in leadership positions should represent those that they wish to lead. The working class will never completely respect a man who has never broken a sweat. If you have not been able to gain order over your own life, how can you ever hope to bring order to such a chaotic society like the one we face today?

Money

A lot of people think that having a personal foundation means being rich, but that is not necessarily the case. Money is vital to the operations of an organisation. We have seen a lot of groups use this as an excuse to ask for funds and focus completely on making money. We must have a transparent movement which is open with its money about where donations go as well as allow the donors to decide what causes they are donating to.

Communication

Transparency is only one part of communication as a whole. We must always remember that we aren’t mind readers and we must be able to communicate with one another about activism and ideas. Communication will also allow a greater deal of understanding.

Vicinity

Phones and bulletins are good ways to communicate with everyone, but living in close proximity of comrades is also important. This is why vicinity is important. People will follow locals much more willingly that someone across the map. This is why building communities is paramount to our success. We must grow organically from one area and expand.

Base

The very core of this area must become the nucleus of the movement. This is why a strong base must be created first before any expansion goes underway. With a foundation built we will build an unshakable home. A strong political and economic base doesn’t necessarily have to be a majority but rather a very active minority. By achieving 5% to 10% of the population in a town you can effectively boycott local business’s and can influence those in power.

People

Lastly - and the centerpiece of our movement - is always its people. Our future lies in the hands of its members and its leaders. Each and every individual - no matter what position -must remain honorable and loyal at all times. He or she should always take responsibility for any actions of the past and the present. Without followers there’s no need for leaders. And without proper leaders, we can never be led to victory.
