I was thrown into several tough situations in my life, and I’ve tried to be as fair as possible with others and with myself. This is not easy. You have to know yourself if you want others to understand who you are.

I have always wondered why people had always trusted me and why I am often successful when it comes to signing a contract or convince my audience at a job interview. Be yourself, use your natural talent and don’t talk too much. You have an intrinsic value, and nobody can question your identity as long as you show the real you.
Every time you lie, you will pay it back. One thing I had to learn is that you may cheat 100 people one time, but you can not trick 100 times one person. Most of us know when someone is telling bullshit. We all have intuition.

Look into the eyes of your interlocutor. You will know if he is telling you the truth, just by watching his eyes. Give your trust to the ones who deserve it. Ignore the others.

If you’ve done something wrong, (and we all do bad things at some points in our lives), do not lie, the truth will always come back to you like a boomerang. But if you decide, to be honest, people in front of you will appreciate your effort and will forgive you at least 50%, if not more.
When i was a child, at school, I often failed to do my homework, while my classmate found excuses, I had always told the truth to the teacher, I was busy helping my parent in their businesses, I was lazy to do it, or it was too complicated for me.
What I found out it is teachers often gave me a second chance, they don't know how to react towards honesty. lol
You may think i am an idiot but what if honesty were more profitable than a lie ? Did you try truth vs lie ?
You may found my post somehow optimistic or even simplistic, but this is my true feeling, I promise you one thing, there is nothing more important than honesty. Test it in your surrounding and come back to me with a comment.
Be honest
Regards
Laurent
