Why We Lie

We lie when the truth feels uncomfortable. We worry we’ll be judged if others knew the truth. Ironically, lying causes internal dissonance and stress, feels much worse and does damage to our self-esteem. When lying seems to be the only option, remember it’s not. We can change the behavior we’re feel the need to lie about or start accepting it. The issue that actually needs to be addressed is that we’re missing something really important that would override the impulse to lie about anything…

Self-love.
