84. Eliminate Compulsive Lying - I'm sure you have heard the old saying, "The truth will set you free." This is so true no matter who you are. When you lie, especially in a compulsive way, you must keep track of the lie and remember who you lied to, thereby putting a little part of yourself in a jail. These pieces of yourself become so hidden that you might not even realize how much of you is missing, hiding behind these lies. The person you really are is under there somewhere and if you ever want to experience true freedom, it's time to start telling the truth. What to do: Compulsive lying always starts off with an agenda. This could be to cover up bad actions or thoughts, to keep from hurting another's feelings, to manipulate others, make oneself appear better than they really are, or out of bad habit. The truth is a lot easier than pretending to be someone else and this is the first belief that needs to be instilled in order to stop the urge for lies. Before you speak, think about whether or not it is really the truth. Start telling truths to yourself and use truthful affirmations. Visualize yourself telling the truth about things and having better experiences because of it. Soon telling the truth will become your first instinct rather than lying. Affirmations to Eliminate Compulsive Lying: ● ● ● ● ● I am easily able to remain truthful at all times Telling the truth comes naturally to me I am an honest person It is easy for me to be honest when asked a question I am genuine in my actions, words and thoughts Visualization Technique to Eliminate Compulsive Lying: This visualization technique should be used as often as possible to break the compulsive lying habit. Compulsive lying to some people comes without thinking and is really not done on purpose for some. In order to break any habit, the subconscious needs to be retrained and this is exactly what this visualization technique entails. Any time you are asked a question or find yourself thinking about speaking to someone, imagine yourself in the conversation. Think about using only the truth and be sure that everything you say during the visualization is completely true. Don't try to bend the truth or sugar coat it. Practice telling the entire truth in as many imaginary conversations as you can throughout the day. It won't take long for these truthful words to begin coming easy to you when you are conversations with real people. Statbrook Associates LLC – 106
