best policy’.

Being honest means being truthful in all the aspects of life. It is not only about not telling lies but
is also about never hurting anyone, not involving in any bad habits, activities or behavior. Generally,
honest persons never involve themselves in morally wrong activities. They live by ethical rules and
morality. If you want to be honest, you should first behave well, be disciplined, and speak the truth.
