A Person should not be too honest; Straight Trees are cut first

Good afternoon everyone.

Firstly, I would like to thank you for giving me the chance to express my points of view.

From my point of view, I concluded that honesty is a good thing we all have to be honest.
But sometimes, it is really hard to be honest everywhere because we don't know how the person is going to react after listening to our explanation.

Thus we concluded that we have to begin honestly if it is required not fully but some honesty will be there.

Thank you.

I do agree the same and always honesty in all the dealing both in professional and personal would't be a rewarding one rather than this world definitely to become you as a dishonest person. People in india doing dishonest thing for achiving and getting some personal needs like, bribe to police, donation from new student etc., How many of them in the 100 Cr. people in india, paying tax regularly?? how many indian political leader have account in swis bank to hiding black money ???

We are living in an artificial world, full of corruption and materialistic people. So i don't think being too honest in such a phase would let one survive. Inorder to be successful and achieve the highest goals in one's life it would definitely a correct step if one has to be dishonest in some way of his/her goal. I won't say this thing has to be followed always but yes when required it should be. Being completely honest and not achieving what one believes to have rather ruining one's own dreams is not good. A slightly bent tree has an advantage to survive more than a straight tree.

Whether you are getting it off your chest, venting, expressing yourself, airing your feeling or just being honest, the truth about honesty is that honesty is not always the best policy.

A very good discussion is going on with the true line: A straight trees are cut first. This line true almost every time, WE know the Honesty is the best policy, but when it exceed the limit, people started to take advantage of you.

An honest person always good and true for yourself and for others. They never have the intention to hurt you. But when person against you, try to take advantage and dominate you. It becomes wrong that time. They should do like others. An honest person always wins, because liar person can not be stable.

I think the topic should be seen as applying the honesty towards achieving goals. When we are aiming at our goals, our culture tells us to follow honesty. But we should not be too honest that will come as hindrance to achieve the goal. I mean sometimes there needs to make compromise which will not foul with our honesty but make a way towards our target. Sometimes too much honesty is seen as stubbornness.
We call a person successful who knows to how to back a step to move two step forward. That is the reason a car has the back gear. It is nothing with too much honesty. Infact in that case it is the showing off honesty. We should be honest to our ethics and at the same times careful about our goal to reach so that it would never stop in half way like the straight trees cut first.

Yea all the views are reasonable from everyone's point. Being honest depends on the situation a person is in. If the person is in a very critical situation where his one lie could save other person he can be dishonest in the place.

Whoever following to be honesty, I did not see never place honesty, our country people have followed honesty, lead to India will be a biggest country. So straight trees are cut first, its true. Plant have growth after trees, so we will cutting plant stage, not trees stage. Like that honesty. If each and everybody following honesty still from our childhood stage, nobody can't contravene.

Honesty is a good thing should be adopted by everyone from their childhood yes I agree that straight trees are cut first but they look nice in nature like that a honest person also looks nice in society and will accepted by the society will identify easily by people in a group.

Hello,

I am Saisnata. Actually I am confused that, people often say those who take the positive side wins the success at last. Is that true?If yes, my question is that when this last comes. Look at the world history there has always been defeat and destruction of many sensitive people who are in positive side. Like Mohammad Ghori came and killed many sensitive people. When the last comes. Britishers came and made many huge loss, tortured, terminated and many people were killed, exterminated and segregated. When the last comes.

So I suppose those all to be past and let it away. But I could not any any positive chances in the modern world even. So can anybody is there who can make me clear that if this like things will happen, how the morality could be explored, how an innocent child can walk on a corrupted road.
