  1. Make a commitment to tell the truth.
  2. Tell someone about your commitment.
  3. Think before you give a dishonest answer, explanation, sarcasm, or reason.
  4. Be careful of when and how you use exaggeration, sarcasm, or irony.
  5. Be careful not to twist the truth or leave out part of it.
  6. Don't indulge in little white lies.
  7. Watch out for silent lies.
  8. When you catch yourself lying, throw your mouth into reverse.
  9. Talk to yourself.
  10. Treat yourself when you tell the truth.


      The Ten tips of being more truthful will benefit me in many ways because if you don't learn how to be more truthful then many people will not believe you. For example, If you start using too much sarcasm or irony then most people will think you're still trying to mess with them even when you're telling the truth and being honest.
