Dr. Maureen O’Sullivan’s Speech: Part Two
Dr. O’Sullivan talks about how people who lie to their friends are less accurate in lie detection. I found this fascinating and it supports what I see in life. The more a person deludes themselves and others, the more removed from reality they become, and the more difficulty they will have in seeing the truth. It’s a good reason to be honest, if you ask me.
One audience member asks if any Truth Wizards have admitted to lying a lot themselves. I am perplexed that so many people ask this type of question, as if because we can see lies, we are good at lying. It’s mortifying really. This question comes up a lot!
Dr. O’Sullivan said it best when she said, “Actually, they are extremely honest people…I think as people they try to live their life in a very principled way…they value honesty.”
