In your public life, especially in your dealings with your government, honesty, while sometimes difficult, really is always the best policy.
I had a close friend (now unfortunately deceased – after a long and productive life) whose father was a very important figure in his country’s government – he effectively controlled all the purchasing done by a central American nation. When I asked my friend how his father got such an important position, he laughed and said “He is the only completely honest member of the government”.
My friend also practiced the policy of complete honesty as did the stoic philosopher Epictitus – one of the most important moral philosophers who ever lived.
