It is a poor idea to lie to yourself

Indeed, it is a poor idea to lie to yourself. I guess a majority of people are guilty when it comes to the above statement. Lying to yourself is the worse decision one can ever make. I've seen people lying to themselves at work, people trying to convince themselves that they are capeable of doing certain things when in fact they don't have a clue. It is mostly sad especially when it comes to people at management position, when they cannot write a simple reports and they convince the fellow colleagues that they actually can.

I know of someone who cannot write a report and because his a manager he always deligate to someone that he knows will make him shine, its sad because he will never learn, will always be depending on this individual. I always ask myself as to what will happen if the report writter can decide to look for another job, who will do work or reports for this him.

For me the best solution is to come out clean, if you not sure as to how certain things are done, its crucial to say it as it is. It always helps, cause people will assist you freely and willingly, knowing very well that you are incapeable.

People must stop fooling themselves and come out clean. It helps, and its the best solution ever!!!
