6. always be true to yourself
you don`t like other people lying to you, right? similarly, you won`t like yourself if you know that you lie to yourself. whether you realize it or not, that gives your mind a reason not to like yourself. that’s why it`s important to always be true to yourself. in whatever you do, be honest and follow your conscience. remember this quote by abraham lincoln:
i desire so to conduct the affairs of this administration that if at the end . . . i have lost every other friend on earth, i shall at least have one friend left, and that friend shall be down inside of me.
