Student Success Statement 5.17.18

1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict.
2. Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished.
3. Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened.
4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying (and geting caught).
5.Other people trust you more when you tell the truth.
6. You dont have to tell (and remember) more lies to keep your story straight.
7. You gain a reputation for being truthful- a trait most people value.
8. Telling the truth helps you to feel secure and peaceful inside.

When you tell the truth it saves you so much time and emotional labor. It does so much good for you but when you're scared of confrontation you lie sometimes and it's not fair to others. People deserve to be told the truth all the time and when you don't provide that for them it's a huge disrespect. Telling lies is very time consuming and you spend most of your day thinking about them and trying to keep up with them when you couldve just said the truth in the beginning. It's hard to tell the truth sometimes but the more you do it the more it becomes habit. I think being honest is one of the best traits because its rare.
