Importance of honesty

1. The way to keep the family in harmony

Wei Zhi, a famous minister in the Tang Dynasty, said, "Couples are kind, but if they are not sincere, they will leave. As long as husband and wife, father and son and brothers treat each other with sincerity and are honest and trustworthy, they can live in harmony and achieve the goal of family and prosperity. If the family lacks honesty and mutual distrust, the family will gradually fall apart.

2, the basis of making friends

Only by "making friends and keeping your word" can we achieve the goal of "trusting friends", confiding and helping selflessly. Otherwise, if friends are full of hypocrisy and deception, there will never be real friends. Friends are based on honesty.

3, the soul of doing business

In modern society, when signing a contract, businessmen expect the other party to keep the contract. Honesty is the best competitive means of various commercial activities, the soul of market economy and a real "gold business card" for entrepreneurs.
