Awesome. Honesty is sooooo difficult for me. I lie ALL the time and don't really even know I'm doing it. And its little stuff. Stuff I don't even need to 'fudge' on, get away with, be dishonest about. Its really strange. I'd love to say that I've got it all sorted and I'm over it, but that would be a lie

One thing that is helping me is praying/setting my intention in the morning when I get up. If prayer isn't for you then just saying to oneself, I will be honest in all my affairs today, no matter what. Then at night, doing a kind of inventory, or soul searching. Going through my day and really asking myself 'where was I not honest?'. And for me dishonesty is sneaky. I don't have to be lying to be dishonest. Its all in motive and intent. Was I manipulative? That kind of thing. And if I find that I wasn't completely honest, I make an amends where I can, fast. I right the wrong. It helps.
