We've all heard the fabled tale of George Washington who, after chopping down his father's cherry tree, could not tell a lie and fessed up to what he had done.
And whether or not this is an actual historical account is up in the air, but we can still see the meaning behind it: that he valued honesty above all.
Now, we're familiar with the phrase "honesty is the best policy." But are there any real consequences when the only one you're lying to is yourself?
For instance, are you really following your business plan? Do you even have one?.Are you living it 100%? Or are you just talking a good game? Look at your results, your bottom line, and you'll probably find the answer.
You've decided to make this amazing lifestyle/business change in your life, but it's not going to work unless you truly commit to it. And part of your commitment comes through honesty, both to yourself and your business plan. A half-hearted attempt won't do it; it's time to be completely honest with yourself on all counts.
As George Washington realized, lying gets you nowhere. And if you're lying to yourself, the only one who's paying the price is you.
Have an even better day!....
