Ten Tips

1. Make a commitment to tell the truth.

2. Tell someone about your commitment.

3. Think before you give a dishonest answer, explanation, sarcasm, or reason.

4. Be careful of when and how you use exaggeration, sarcasm, or irony.

5. Be careful not to twist the truth or leave out part of it.

6. Don't indulge in little white lies.

7. Watch out for silent lies.

8. When you catch yourself lying, throw your mouth into reverse.

9. Talk to yourself.

10. Treat yourself when you tell the truth.

Reflection: These 10 tips can help you I guess if you aren't already being truthful cause that's kinda common sense. I not gonna use any of these because I'm truthful in my way ill tell it like it is. But even we should all know that there are times when you have you to lie to make it better. These ten tips seem really annoying people should be just tell the truth how they want too. I really wont be using or incorporating into my life planning goals because this is something I already do out of habit its not something I need to learn. Being truthful is also important because what if you lie to someone and they see that you lied what are they going to lie to you back possibly I would.  I also don't think that you should treat yourself when you tell the truth because then it is more of a chore then it is habit. If a person want to abide by these tips go ahead but i just don't think that these tips are for me.
