If I am being honest, I am not always sure if I am being honest.

What I can be sure of is when I’m consciously being dishonest. It’s easy to recognize those instances, unlike when I later realize I was mistaken or misinformed — that’s all part of learning and making mistakes at full speed.

Dishonesty usually stems from not owning the truth as I perceive it. That’s what gets me in trouble. I push my perception as truth when, in fact, it’s just my interpretation of reality.

If I am being honest, my experience is that there is very little truth, but a whole lot of perception. That’s why I tell myself, “Don’t be dishonest — own the truth as I perceive it to be.”

If you are being honest, are you sure you’re being honest?
