How did that effect your mood and your happiness? So, do you want other people to feel that way about you? Of course not.

Something you may not realize: Being insincere ruins your inner life of meaning and happiness. Why? Because you are not being true to yourself. When you say you will do one thing, but do not do it, you have lied to yourself. You have made yourself something that you do not mean to be. Why diminish your own happiness?

The rest of the text of this blog post are immediately following the video pane:


When you are straightforward in your speech and actions you reinforce what ought to be inside you already – happiness and meaning. You demonstrate for yourself your own integrity.

When you are above board in all your dealings with others, you show yourself to be the person you want to be. You have nothing to hide because you are sincere in all the commerce of your life.

When you have nothing to hide, you are far freer than one who must constantly remember his or her lies. When you know yourself as free, you have reiterated what you know from your internal happiness. Being happy on the inside shows you and gives you a freedom that you achieve in no other quarter of your life.

What are some elements of sincerity?

1. Be honest. Use honest dealings with everyone about everything. When you fib you cloud any situation. You have to remember every fib you ever told in that ongoing relationship.

Be sure to understand that you will be caught. Your reputation with others will suffer. You reputation with yourself will suffer as well.

Honesty reflects who you are really on the inside. You are true to yourself.

2. Be guileless in all transactions within your life. Anyone who sets up to spin a web of deception will get caught himself or herself. You will trip yourself up in your own trap eventually.

Whenever you set out to con anyone, employer, employee, spouse, children, friends you have really conned yourself out of integrity. This trap-setting will surely catch up to you.

Imagine hiding behind a mask all day and all night. That is what you do when always scheming to gain an upper hand. But you really also mask your own soul.

3. Be earnest in all your verbal communication. Be earnest in all non-verbal conversation. Avoid boasting. Yes, you can say good things about yourself as long as it does not cross the line into arrogance and you do not announce them over and over again.

You know of people who are constantly exaggerating or using hyperbole in their conversations. Soon those who try to listen to such individuals tune them out. Their conversation turns into a series of statements to put them one-up on anyone else.

When you are earnest you strengthen your own meaning and happiness. You match you outer world with your inner world.

4. Be pretentionless in your being and doing. You have no need to puff yourself up with false and misleading airs of any kind.

You also know of people who are always blowing their own horns. With their words and tones of speech they alienate others when those other people see right through them. When someone pretends to be who they are not, they destroy relationships as surely as a torpedo destroys a ship.

If you want to blow your own horn, play in a band where you can harmonize with others.

5. Be trustworthy. When you say you will do something, do it. If you are unable, after all, to perform the task as you promised, speak to the affected parties and apologize.

Do your darnedest to follow through honorably with what you have proclaimed you will accomplish for another. If you let the task go as unimportant, that is exactly how the other person will feel you feel about them.

When you help other persons feel unimportant in your eyes, you have added to your own feeling of unimportance.

6. Be simple. Ever increasing complexity is a problem. People have learned to hide in details. Other people do not want to be looking for traps. The simpler you are, the more you will trusted.

Complexness is sometimes very much needed, like on the circuit board of a computer. Sometimes complexity means greater and greater capacity to accomplish more and more.

You may be a very complex person with all your interests. That’s good. But when you put up the barrier of complexity in human relationships, you barter your credibility. Be as simple as possible whenever possible.

7. Be transparent. Hiding behind a veil of secrecy is a sure way to engender mistrust in others. Hiding something is one sure way to find yourself lessened. When you are open to casual scrutiny, you say that you can be trusted.

Transparent is what the Consciousness/Universe seeks to be. I know it has been said over and over again that knowledge of the Universe is permanently hidden. I simply do not believe that to be true. All we need do is look and we will find.

Finding the meaning of life, which is to be happy, is really a transparent process. You simply need to make and maintain contact with the Consciousness/Universe. Yes, it takes effort and time but so does anything worthwhile.

There you have it: Seven ways to sincerity and, therefore, the increase of your life. That means greater meaning and happiness for you.

There once was a pilgrim whose name was Anton. He sought the holy place where it was said that the Spirit of his God dwelt. He walked the dusty roads of the great distance it was from his home to the shrine. He walked at a leisurely pace, stopping frequently for rest and relaxation. He believed his God would still be there whenever he arrived. His fellow pilgrims sometimes envied him his easygoing rate. They felt themselves in a far greater hurry to reach the shrine and worship. But these fellow pilgrims could find nothing wrong or sacrilegious in the Anton’s pace. They found no fault in his answer that the Spirit would be there whenever he arrived.

One day, near his journey’s end, Anton felt ill. He only traveled two miles that day. The illness just debilitated him. The next day, just a few steps down the road and Anton collapsed and died.

His fellow pilgrim heard of this, of course. They said of Anton that he appeared to be a good man. But maybe his timing was off. Surely the Spirit would still be in place, but Anton would not be at the shrine whenever. . . .

What he needed to have done, they said, was to boost his level of will and sincerity. One doesn’t ever know, they said, when one might want to have accomplished something when it turns out to be too late. Anton, they said, had needed to increase his level of personal will to reach his goal as soon as humanly possible. Surely he did not need to put himself under undo pressure, for God would be there always. Yes, they said, he needed to deepen his commitment to his goal.

And, they said, he needed to increase his apparent level of sincerity. Of course, they couldn’t tell what his degree of sincerity was. No one can read another’s soul. But it appeared as if Anton, to them, didn’t really care all that much. Or he would have picked up the tempo of his travels.

They shook their heads in incredulity as they increased their own tempo of walking and thought, within themselves, of their own will to worship

at the shrine as soon as possible. Were they more like Anton than they would admit, even to their fellow pilgrims?

Are you like Anton? Do you want happiness and, therefore, to know the meaning of life? But you think it will always be there? What’s the rush? It is true, happiness will always be there within you. No need to stress yourself over it. But what are you missing when you don’t put as much of your will into as you can? If you only pretend sincerity? Or, at least, shave off some of the sincerity you have stored up within you?

Though God is always there waiting for your to make the link between the two of you, perhaps it behooves you to dip deep into the well of your sincerity and draw forth all you can carry right now.
