Honesty is best policy in the world
I want to start by saying, it's not that you can't tell the truth but only as long as you don't lie.
As for the other side, how can we be so sure of the reality we see around us? How can the society expect a person to commit murder? Or to lie and deceive people and get away with it?
When we decide to go on to make an effort to tell the truth, what should we be looking at? After all, there are many who will lie and lie and lie and lie just like a snake and it will come back every time and again. We ought to follow up ourselves by being honest in our own way. Not by lying to everyone but by telling the full story and letting the person know everything else is wrong.
The world is always moving. We have new things to learn and discover. When you become very honest like this, you'll be able to keep yourself alive. And if you're ever in doubt, then you’ll be assured of your own place to stand when most others can't or won't.
In one of my articles, I stated the following three truths: firstly, honesty is better than lies; second, honesty may seem risky but it could save lives if executed properly. Lastly, as a human being, I don’t need to lie to anyone. So, don’t lie to yourself. If you're in doubt about any situation, then ask yourself this question: "If I start saying something and I'm later found out a lie was told, am I prepared?" If I'm not, then you have no excuse or reason to cheat, lie or deceive a friend. Just be honest to yourself.
The secret is in your mind that has been kept hidden. It will only help you when you're trying to be honest with yourself. If it works, then it only works because it’s done honestly. That's what it is all about.
There's a quote by Albert Einstein, “Happiness doesn't come easily but easy if you let it.” That rings true now. There's nothing more important than a healthy relationship with yourself, no matter if you're currently single, married or even in a committed relationship. Don't underestimate how much work that little voice in your head goes through. It's a powerful tool that will allow you to succeed in any endeavor. However, without a good self-love and genuine effort from within, then it isn't going to function well. Don’t push yourself. You're already busy enough, don't give yourself extra work and try to do too much.
You will only hurt yourself and if you do so, then your reputation will weaken. Being a truthful man or woman isn't easy and neither is making yourself look like someone who gives a crap. Instead, focus on your worth and give yourself love and acceptance. This should be done in real life and it will make you feel good at the end of the day and make you feel safe and secure. As mentioned above, a simple reminder that people can hurt you, even though they never said anything to make a comment will be enough. Never do anything to hurt another soul. It hurts the individual who did one and never forgives himself or herself for it. But if you look inside yourself, then there is only goodness left in your heart that makes you feel safe and secure in your surroundings.
It shouldn't be so difficult to be honest to yourself. In fact, it's easier than it seems. Try following these steps. Keep a journal and write down all the things you did, the small things and all the big ones. Once you write them down and write them down, put them next to each other and write down the things that made you smile, laugh or cry when you wrote them down. Think of what would happen if those things came true to you. Then write about them and express your feelings about them. Write down your dreams and thoughts. Write down the plans you have in mind and write them down as well. List the things you could do, goals you've set. Be sincere and honest with yourself. This is how you find the right direction for you and move forward. Even if you're facing tough times or have problems, then don't hide them. Tell the whole truth and stop being ashamed.
Most importantly, don't lie. Be honest and upfront to yourself about anything negative you've faced at least once a day. Remember every action is being carried out by you. Speak to yourself until he or she starts believing themselves. Be brave and speak to whoever you can. Tell them exactly what happened. Find solutions wherever possible and find out ways to prevent it from happening again. A little self awareness will take care of a lot of mistakes.
