My lifestyle was killing me and I knew I had to do something about it. I have learned that the best way to develop a healthy lifestyle is to discover the source of problem and then put a plan into action that will develop good health.

Honesty

The meaning of honesty seems to have changed. An elemennts of grace once existed that help separate honesty from permission to insult.

Now honesty for some people means saying whatever in their minds regardless of whom it may hurt. These people preface their comments with " I hope you won't get mad at me." "Please don't think I'm being critical," " Don't mind if I'm honest," "I'll be candid with you," and then they insult you.

Honesty requires more thought than an insult. Most of us think faster than we can talk, so many ideas that flash in our minds never reach our tongues, Thank goodness!

People are able to act their best when they feel valued. Honesty in the form of insultor cricism wear downs confidence. If honesty means insensitive. Check your motivations. An honest insult may not be as honest as you think.
