I also realized that I was, in many respects, a liar.
I lied to myself about myself.
I lied to make myself look and feel good.
I also lied to others when I was afraid.
It is hard to trust a fool who repeatedly makes poor choices.
It is even harder to trust someone you know is prone to lying.
What turned everything around for me was the day I realized that I was teaching my children to lie.
It was a very simple lie I told my son to tell someone I wasnt home.
When he looked at me and said, Where are you, Mommy?
I knew I was in trouble.
There are many things I did that were acceptable for me but not acceptable for my children.
Teaching my children to lie and to be afraid were among those highly unacceptable things.

How you treat yourself on a daily basis can provide some critical feedback about your current level of self-trust.
