The Ten Tips for Being More Truthful

Barabra A. Lewis

The ten tips that Barabra Lewis gave will benifit my life in a positive way. Barabra suggests to make a commitment to telling the truth. She also sugggests to think before you use any sarcasm. What was really intresting to me about these ten tips was tip number ten. Tips number ten tells us to treat ourselves when we tell the truth. I think that its a good way to prevent youself from saying another lie. When there is an award after what we are told to do people will give it ther 100% in order to achieve that award. I think that rewarding yourself is a good thing to do because it will make you want to do more good things becuase you will wait for an award after. Tip number five suggest that we shouldent twist the truth. It also explains how we shouldent be apart of it either. I am applying this tip in my life right now in order to prevent myself for saying another lie. I've grown up to see life change not only for me, but for others around me. Out of all the tips I think that catching yourself lying and stopping it is the more complex tips of them all. This requires courage and sense of guiltyness. It is important to be aware that when you catch yourself in a lie you stop the lie and change the subject. In the end of that day, a lie leads to another lie and another lie. You need to be aware that lies can and will bring negativity in your life. Its always good to stay away for unnessesary negativity. Finally, it's important to be able to talk to yourself. The reason why this is important to do is becuase you need to have strong mind to say no to lying. When you are strong enough to do that youll see that your life will progressively get better.
