If I was to give anyone advice. I’d say be radically honest with yourself and with others. Lying is easy in the moment, but leads to a worse life.
Jordan Peterson says be honest with your wife immediately small fire, bottle it up and tell her later inferno
🎯🎯🎯 Lying is high time preference. The negativity compounds over time, worsening peace of mind and therefore life, inevitably, for self and immediate family. Honesty is the basis for creating a strong foundation for yourself, and for civilization. 🧡🧡🧡
And everytime you lie, you have to keep that lie going forever in fear of being called out as a liar. It will eventually be found out too. Easier to just tell the truth , then you have nothing to keep track of
My life has improved greatly since I stopped telling small lies. Now, I either tell the truth or just refuse to talk about it. It's great. nostr:nevent1qqs82g35am5sl0cpw493pu3tp290jhlq372xrtmwrzvw3fen2a9n2jqpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgq3qrtlqca8r6auyaw5n5h3l5422dm4sry5dzfee4696fqe8s6qgudksxpqqqqqqzueqmhd

People pleaser here. Saying “yes” and “sure” are on autopilot - regardless of intention/action. Saying no means freedom. Saying no is extremely difficult.
K cool. Haha. I think you should pay an invoice for posterity sake. Hahaha. Remember the time we did 1 million? 😉✅️

The amount of energy required to maintain a lie over time compounds.
I don't understand why someone would lie when they don't have to. So I don't understand how lying is "easy in the moment", but there are so many situations for so many people where lying is pretty necessary or else they definitely live a worse life. E.g. most children with their parents, or in school, or with authority figures.
Honesty is like a tree, stands firmly thanks to its roots. On the contrary lies can’t stand in face of the wind and can’t go far.
and therein lies the fate of those trying repress the masses with censorship and misinformation ... it won't end well. on a brighter note really enjoyed the conversation with hzrd149 and Bowman. only just discovering your stuff .... think this could be another deep rabbit HOLE 🤔
Super interesting and short read on this subject: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18869177-lying
Yes. I think about this quote a lot. https://m.primal.net/HyJG.jpg
If only there were some kind of cryptocurrency blockchain that embodied this commitment.
