Be honest with yourself

When the topic of honesty comes up, the general tendency is to think about our relationship with others. We understand the need to be honest with people. 
一般来说，提到诚实，我们就会想到人与人之间的关系。我们都知道，诚实很重要。

If you cannot trust your neighbor to say the truth, and your neighbor can't trust you to say the truth, what sort of social life will that produce? 
如果你不相信你的邻居会说真话，你的邻居也不相信你会说真话，你的邻里关系会是怎么样的？

If parents don't trust children, and children don't trust parents, what sort of family life will result? 
如果父母不信任孩子，孩子不信任父母，这家人的家庭生活会是什么样的？

It is understandable then why we have to be honest with each other. Honesty with yourself beyond honesty with others. 
所以说，我们要对彼此坦诚。而你对自己也要坦诚，这比对他人坦诚更重要。

However, have you ever considered that your first responsibility is to be honest with yourself? If you cannot be honest with yourself, how can you be honest with others?
