Ten ways to tell your friends the truth

LISTEN TO EP 75: APPLE PODCASTS | SPOTIFY

If I am honest, I don't fully comprehend the idea of lying to your friends. I know that sometimes we find ourselves in situations where we are in a dilemma whether to be honest with our friends or to sugarcoat the truth to avoid hurting their feelings. But I want you to stop and think about the times that you were lied to and how it made you feel. I want you to think about the times were someone you loved and respected (a parent, a spouse, a friend, a coworker... whoever) left out all of the truth in the name of your feelings.

The ego will trick us in to thinking that we know what's best for everybody but the reality is we don't. So the truth will need to land however it likes. You cannot pilot it down safety. Of course with delivery, and sincerity it can FEEL better but sometimes being honest with our friends is just not always going to be easy.

But in order to build and maintain relationships it's important to that trust and authenticity come way before hurt feelings.

In today's episode you and I are going to discuss some practical and effective ways to tell your friends the truth, no matter how difficult it may seem.
