Today I would like to talk to you about hypocrisy, the problem that has become widespread everywhere, whether in work, relationships, or even in society in general. As I mentioned to you before, honesty is the basis of any successful relationship, and I believe that hypocrisy is the exact opposite, because it destroys trust and creates an atmosphere of lies and empty compliments.
The problem is that we live in a time when people wear masks, they appear with one personality in front of people, but inside they are something completely different. You find someone laughing in your face, saying nice things, but as soon as you turn your back, they start talking about you differently. This is not only in personal relationships, even at work, you find people pretending to love their colleague or manager, but in reality they are trying to benefit in any way.
As for the reasons for hypocrisy, I believe that fear and interest are the biggest drivers for it. Some people are hypocrites to gain the approval of those around them, or to reach a certain position, but the problem is that they forget that the truth always appears in the end. A hypocrite may succeed for a while, but in the long run, people start to discover his true nature and distance themselves from him.
As I mentioned to you, we don't need more hypocrisy, we need honest people, even if the truth is uncomfortable. Honesty is a million times better than false compliments, because when you are honest, people will respect you even if they disagree with you. Hypocrisy may get you to a certain place, but it will never make you a real or truly lovable person.
In the end, society needs people with principles, people who are not willing to sell themselves for some temporary interests. Think about those around you.. Are you surrounded by honest people, or are they just people playing roles? And always remember.. Hypocrisy may get to you quickly, but honesty is what makes you stand firm and continue.
