We
will be happier and more healthy when we are honest
|
.
| We
already know that a mobiliser, to be successful, must not only be honest,
but be seen to be honest. |
. |
But
here we are going to talk about the role that honesty plays in the health
of the mobiliser, and thus in her or his overall effectiveness. |
....
|
We know that to lie we need a superb
memory.
|
....
| We
must remember what we told to which persons, so that subsequent stories
are consistent with the lies. |
.. |
If
we are always honest, we do not have to keep an elaborate scheme of inter-relating
stories in our memories. |
....
| We
do not have to fear making a mistake, and being caught out in our lies. |
...... |
And
that fear lies at the base of a strain on our health. |
....
| Anxiety
about being caught out in our lies produces stress, and that stress is
unhealthy. |
. |
When
we are stressed, our immune system is challenged, and we more easily catch
colds, the flu or other viruses. |
....
| We
are less able to fight malaria, and we are more susceptible to water borne
diseases that cause diarrhoea. |
. |
When
we are ill often, then we are less able to maintain the positive attitude
and approach that is required of every mobiliser. |
....
|
Staying honest reduces our stress, and
increases our health and effectiveness.
