Research studies reveal that most people tell multiple lies every day. We don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings. Or we want to make ourselves look good so we exaggerate. But the most common lies are the ones we tell ourselves. Have you ever done this? You tell yourself what you believe is true in your heart: I won’t eat much. I promise. Just a couple of bites. And the next thing you know you’re holding an empty bag of chips or licking the pan clean.
