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

Of course honesty is the best policy, but some times we have to give up our wishes while being honest, and in my view in the present world even though we are honest the others won't be like that with us and we face some problems because of them, so I think there is no need to be very honest always.

According to the topic I think a person should be honest but not too honest. Being too honest can lead him to problems. He/She must react depending upon the situations, circumstances and the end results. I totally agree with Kiran that although straight trees are cut first but they achieve "Height" before that which ordinary trees aren't able to.

The statement it self tells that if will be cut whether we are honest or not. So being honest can help us to remain in the hearts of people. But if you are not honest and lived for so many years, what the use of that life. So according to me honesty is the best policy forever.

What is the real meaning of honesty. Telling truth is not just honesty. Every one is honest until they can't get affected by consequences. One who faces all the consequences even though he loss everything is the real honest. Like our Great father of the nation Gandhiji. No one likes to follow honest people. The sad thing about it is they only limited to praising on the occasions of their birth and death days.

In my opinion, being diplomatic is best rather than honest. It looks nice to praise honest one, but in reality no one accepts others honesty. Because even a dishonest person thinks he himself is most honest in his perspective.

Just be like water so that you can overcome the problem or if necessary you can wipe out the problem with storm, rather than standing like straight tree.

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.

Honest and too honest two different thing. Honest signifies that a person is honest but he is also alert, where as too honest signifies he is honest but he is not alert. A honest person can do his work without getting cheated whereas a too honest may become target of people and can easily be cheated.

According to my point of view honest is good. A honest person can do his work without cheating where as too honest may become target of people can easily cheated. For example if find 1000 rs on road and you asking everyone it belongs you or you. Suddenly one person said that it is mine. You would give to him. Later you find that it does not belongs him. In that case you feel unhappy. So we show like honest not too honest.

In my point of view honesty is the best policy. A honest person can thinking about what ever may be he will doing it can not effect others. An honest person does not fear about the results. An honest person can suffer some problems that problems can be easily solved. Some body escaping the problems that members can suffering through out the life. According to topic straight trees sad cut first, all people should try to be honest.

Too much of anything is bad. Too honest person can be easily cheated. So honesty is the best policy, honesty is the combination of two things i.e, truthful and sincerity. I agree with straight trees cut first because they more useful and wood used for different purpose like tables, doors etc. Suppose your parents are dishonest, you are not interested talking to your father. My conclusion is too much me any thing is bad so we need to be a honest there fore we see a greatest India.

Hi, Too much is too bad. Even a medicine consumed too much leads to health problems. Every thing in this world has limit. A person should be honest until won't hurt the feelings of others. If it hurts the feeling of other people, he should convey in a pleasing manner. Sometimes it may lead to breaking of relationship.
