Student Success Statement
Eight Great Reasons to Tell the Truth
Barbara A. Lewis

  1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict.
  2. Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished.
  3. Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened.
  4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying (and getting caught)
  5. Other people trust you more when you tell the truth.
  6. You don't have to tell (and remember) more lies to keep your story straight.
  7. You gain a reputation for being truthful- a trait most people value.
  8. Telling the truth helps you feel secure and peaceful inside.

What this long statement means is that you need to tell the truth no matter what. When telling the truth you will feel relieved because you didn't lie about it. When people tell the truth they tend to not get in trouble majorly like the people lying about the situation. The truth just makes everything more understandable and less confusing than when someone lies. By being truthful and honest you do get more people to trust you and belief what you say. If you lie there is a chance that what ever you say they might think its a joke or it ain't even true. You don't only get to be trustworthy to people you also get a reputation for telling the truth and not lying. Remember to always tell the truth. Telling the truth will be that best thing you can ever do. Be a ctr person and always say what's right and true.
