DOES HONESTY WORTH IT?

HONESTY
While we need to see the ways in which dishonesty can ruin our lives, we also need to understand what happens when we conquer it. People who have integrity experience life at a different level. It’s richer, more meaningful and more rewarding.
Do you know there are thousands of reason why you should be honest?
Lets review just six (6) some

1. PEACE OF MIND

PEACE OF MIND
If someone asked me what I would do differently if I had the opportunity to live over again, my answer would be: I’d be honest in all things. I look back over my life occasionally with a certain degree of shame and embarrassment at some of the dishonest things I’ve said and done. It took me too long to realize that dishonesty is self-centered at its worst. When I finally wised up, I couldn’t believe the change that took place. Since making a commitment to be honest, I’ve known an inner peace that I would have thought impossible. Honesty has a built-in reward: a mind at peace with itself. If there were no other reasons to be honest, this alone would be enough.

2. CHARACTER AND REPUTATION

CHARACTER AND REPUTATION
Habits are the key to success. They’re also the building blocks of character and reputation, and no habit can shape them as much as honesty. It’s one of the most admired human traits, and it always shows through. In fact, it shines like a beacon. Good people live in the light of it.

3. RELATIONSHIPS

RELATIONSHIPS
If dishonesty ruins relationships, honesty cements them together. The most essential ingredient of a good relationship is trust. This is true in all areas of life – friendship, marriage, family, business, education or religion. Honesty and trust create a climate in which good relationships can develop and grow.

4. WHOLENESS

WHOLENESS
The great psychologist Carl Jung said that our deepest desire is for "wholeness." I take that to mean reaching our potential as humans, becoming the type of persons we’re capable of being. Until we satisfy this desire, we’ll always feel emptiness at the very core of our existence. The only way we can fill it is with integrity. It’s what makes u complete.

5. MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH

MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH
If dishonesty is at the root of many of our psychological problems, then honesty is a source of mental health. If dishonesty attacks our nervous systems, then honesty must strengthen them. When we’re honest, we free ourselves from guilt, worry and other forms of inner turmoil. We begin to enjoy feelings of self-respect and confidence.There’s a feeling of assurance that comes from DOING THE RIGHT THINGS, from living as complete human beings. Simply put, we feel better when we’re honest.
