The Master's wisdom # 25 – Honesty!
Honesty is the best Policy

Perhaps the number one dilemma for people, when going through life is whether to tell the truth or lie.
But before I go forward with my argument I should say that I speak of deep lies, those who touch the foundation of structures - relationships, businesses, people. White lies are perfectly fine with me and often they are very needed.
So, back to the point. One of the reasons that United-States voters voted for Trump was the issue of honesty. They preferred Trump with his open can of worms, to Clinton whose faults were/are well hidden.
People will love you if you look them in the eyes and tell them the truth, no matter how harsh or hard it may be. When Churchill, the UK prime-minister horrified the British nation, promising only "blood, toil, tears and sweat", he was glorified for being the best leader humanity has ever known.
I challenge you - to walk this day with a firm decision that only words of truth come out of your mouth, and if you cannot speak only the truth then remain silent.
Difficult at first, indeed, but liberating afterwards, I guarantee.
In my opinion. In this life to achieve something successfully in all things and in any real field, besides hard work, effort, and talent, there is one more important thing for a professionalism or success, honesty. Why honesty? Because this is an important component in everything. In addition there is an expression that says "honesty is expensive". Yes, honesty is very, very expensive because honestly it is sometimes very heavy. Indeed, every honesty is the truth but, does every honesty affect us or goodness ?? Remember there is good honesty and some are bad. What is the example? Good honesty is honesty that makes you calm and others are happy even though sometimes there are people who feel sick, but what can be done because honesty is for the good of everyone. There is also honesty that makes us hate because, that person will be disturbed by something he has done wrong.
Thanks for this my Teacher @nomad-magus
Most people will reject honesty, as you rightly identified, because it compels them to get out of the box.
Honesty is easy if you do it all the time, something that comes naturally in a person. But if you are used to telling lies this might or will become a habit. Being straightforward and telling the truth is healthy in every relationship and this builds trust and of course love. ♥ Thank you @nomad-magus for sharing this! :) ♥
Indeed.
Being honest opens up the doorway to the soul, hence to love and abundance.
I am very interested in your post @nomad-magus
