Honesty. Honestly honesty is one of the most important elements of loving yourself. By definition, honesty is being free of deceit and untruthfulness; sincere. Though it sounds so simple, this can be one of the toughest things to do in life.
It’s so easy to lie to yourself. It’s easy to tell yourself you’re okay when you’re not. It’s easy to tell yourself you’re pretty when your face is made up or you have on fancy clothes; or is it? It’s hard to deal with the naked truth sometimes but oh how important it is.
You can’t truly live for you if you can’t be honest with yourself. Being honest with yourself can help you in a major way.
- What’s True Will Continue to Exist.
What’s not, won’t. It’s that simple. Think of it like a guy that says he wants to date you but lied about everything from where he lives to what he does for a living. It’s not going to work simply because the foundation is not solid.
- You Become More Fearless.
You don’t look at your flaws and weaknesses as a loss. Instead, you look at it as an opportunity to grow and get better. You grow and glow when you accept them and move on.
- You Gain More Clarity.
Understanding is everything. When you dissect yourself, you learn more about yourself. Self evaluation is healthy and gives you insight on things you may have not noticed about yourself.
- Relationships Become Healthier.
Relationships start with you! You have to be healthy and honest to make things work. You have to set a solid foundation. There’s more to a relationship than just the image. Be you and become better gradually.
- Life Becomes Beautiful.
Life gets better when you’re honest. Even the Bible says that the truth will make you free. That’s just that. There’s so much freedom in honesty. There’s so much truth.
