The honest option
Honesty works better than any alternative.
Be honest with yourself, with others, and you’ll always have something
useful to offer.
It’s easy for your thoughts to become twisted and clouded by doubt, ego,
envy, and so much more. Honesty enables you to break right through all
that.
Seek to be honest and you don’t have to second-guess anything you say or
do. You don’t have to be perfect when you’re able to be true.
Honesty resonates well, even when it’s not elegantly expressed. Honesty
offers substance and value, and those are easy to welcome.
The option to choose is the most honest option. It may not be the
easiest choice in the moment, yet it will be the most effective choice
in the long run.
Deception can be highly enticing, but its gains eventually ring hollow
and cold. Honesty puts you on the side of truth and life, and that’s a
powerful place to be.
