The title may give you a chunk!
Don't worry. We all lie to others and to ourselves also. It's very natural. But do you ever feel the need to be 100% truthful to yourself?
Well, if you are not the one who has a good understanding of your inner self, don't know much about self-talk then you will find this topic very taught to understand. I will try to make it simple.
We all keep more than one 'personality' or 'self' in us. Many of us are not very aware of it. But at least everyone has an idea about 'two different self' in themselves. You will find much time how your 'subconscious' mind is talking to you. There's a tendency in all of us to prove ourselves better, justify our action and always believe we are doing the right. But in many cases this is wrong. At that time we take the help of 'lie' to make us feel better.
You know, if you want to achieve something in life, no matter how silly or huge it is, you have to be real to yourself. How did you suppose to get the best from you if you keep lying to yourself? It's more about self-awareness. Once you become true to yourself, you get the best idea about what you can, what not, who you are and what you are truly what. This is what matters most.
Sit with yourself if there's anything you are trying to hide from yourself. If you find any worry in yourself, any clash in your 'inner self'; it's necessary to connect with your inner self and have a good talk. Resolve your personality error and keep it true.
Remember, at the end of the day we are the ones who can make us answerable, who are responsible for our actions and that's why lying will never help us. Especially when you try to make self-improvement and trying to achieve something in life.
