Is to remind yourself that you'll feel better after telling the truth, or to offer advice to someone facing a dilemma. Telling the truth is linked to better mental and physical health. It also improves your sense of authenticity, leadership abilities, and makes others trust you. Honesty is truthfulness. An honest person has the habit of making accurate, trustworthy statements about life, self, others and God.— In Exodus 20:16 the Bible says that honesty is the only policy. There we read. “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour.”. spiritually
