The statement, honesty is the best policy, is 100 percent true. If you are not honest, you are lying. One lie usually has 15 supporting lies. If you lie once, you have to cover that lie by fabricating 15 other lies. Astonishing, so much hard work just to cover your tracks. Imagine what great results you could yield if you put that much effort into your work?
To say happy, peaceful and successful, it important to be genuine, honest and truthful in everything you do. When you do not have to lie about anything, you naturally feel peaceful at heart because you will be completely honest about everything.
Honesty brings you freedom in that you do not have to think a lot before saying anything. When you lie frequently, you are forcing yourself to recall the many stories associated with a lie to ensure you narrate it correctly each time as you may guess, this will keep you from speaking freely.
In addition, honesty helps you transform your life for the better. When you are honest with yourself and others, you do not hide things, instead, you clarify what you want and work on exactly what needs your attention. If you are a procrastinator, for instance, you will immediately address that issue. Instead of making excuses about your bad habit, you will continuously and consistently work to break it. This will eventually make yu more efficient and in turn, successful.
Similarly, honesty does wonders for you in every area of your life because when you are honest, you are not scared of hiding the truth. This infuses serenity and happiness into your life.
