Your friends, co-workers, and those who know you will probably not remember the nice things you did for them ten years ago. They may not remember the day you brought them a cup of coffee after a long day at work, or the time you dropped everything to give them a ride to the doctor's office. For the most part, the only thing they'll most likely remember is your character and personality. Having a good, pleasant, and positive personality is important. It is better to be known as a person you can be proud of than someone who you should be ashamed of. Who would like to be remembered as snobby, selfish or a delinquent? Why not be remembered as a person who is honest, determined and responsible? Bottom line is, in your life time, you will encountered many different things, and different people and with these three traits, it will make your life much easier.
Honestly plays a huge role in your life, but being honest is not easy. Honesty is an important attribute, because it is one of the many ways people judge you by. If people look at you, and can see that you are not honest, you will not have a good future. It takes time to get people to trust you, but if you betrayed them once, then it's over, and it is almost impossible to gain your trust back. So word of advice, never lie, always be truthful. Now, I'm not saying you should be honest to the point where you are hurting everyone feelings. You have to know that difference between lying for the right reason and telling the truth for the wrong reason. For example, your friend had just brought new clothes over the weekend, they came up and asked if you like their outfit. You personally hate it. So would you tell them you hate it, and hurt their feelings or lie and say it looks fine? In this situation lying would do no harm, in fact you will brighten up their day and boost up their self-esteem.Which leads into the second trait, and that is being responsible.
