Studies report that people lie an average of 3 times for every 10 minutes of conversation. These statistics refer mainly to little, white lies, like saying you feel fine when you don’t or exaggerating to make your stories more interesting. Lying to manipulate, control or deceive is potentially more harmful, but both kinds of lying damage your self-esteem. Your subconscious mind knows when your words don’t match what is authentic and real. This causes an underlying belief that who you really are isn’t good enough — otherwise you’d tell the truth. That’s why honesty with kindness is…
The best policy.
