The Truth Will Always Bubble To The Top
by Douglas Brent
Smith
Do you always tell the truth? Take your time with a question like that,
because the answer is not always as clear as we may think. So many
times we can bend the truth until it distorts and slips into an area we
can't even see as untrue. If we're not careful we can even fool
ourselves.
If we're not careful our attempts at hiding our frailties and issues
becomes an inner marketing campaign of perpetual dimensions. It takes
energy. It takes deception. And it can't last forever.
No matter how protected, guarded, shielded and practiced a lie may be,
it can not survive forever. Eventually people find out whatever it is
that your shielding. The truth will always bubble to the top.
High performance leaders make it a practice to tell the truth from the
start. Even when it's difficult. Even when the facts may be open to
interpretation. Dialogue requires a willingness to state your truth.
The truth takes courage. The truth requires clarity. When it is
controversial or tough the truth takes compassion. But the truth will
always emerge.
The truth will always bubble
to the top. When would you like the people around you to discover the
truth?
