An interesting article and one that makes a lot of sense.

Actually, I have found that having a life’s lie works to create that lie becoming a reality. I call these ‘lies’ affirmations, or seeds that can germinate within you and grow into new realities.

In addition, I would like to comment that while the pursuit of happiness is admirable, happiness out of ignorance is not bliss.

I found your post by googling “business lies vs life lies,” because I heard someone use the term “business lies” on a movie preview I saw yesterday – sorry, can’t remember the movie.

Your post is thought provoking – what about when someone tells you that they are doing something, let’s say in a business situation, that you expect of them, but in reality they are not following through? Is this a “business lie” that’s ok, like the Life Lie, because the person lying is convinced he is going to do the thing he’s lying about? So is this person, the business liar, compared to the Life Liar, better, worse, or the same?

Are all those people who I’ve worked with and said they were going to do something, and didn’t, lying because they thought it was OK since it was only business, so didn’t consider lying bad in business; or because they intended to do the work but couldn’t get themselves to do it for other reasons (incompetence, lazyness, working on too many other projects, depressed, etc.)

Ah, nature smiles upon us by presenting an excellent example of someone living a lie. She gives us the poster “Reality”, who enjoys finding self clever.

when your living in a dream, its different then having a dream. the guy in the story, he was just lying to himself, and not taking real opportunities. the workshop was really a physical place of his depression. because, he also knew he never would BUT just didnt kno how to.. its not a never ending rotation of living a lie, knowing your living a lie, theres and end, and thats success.
