However, there’s a distinct difference between being brutally honest and being truthful with others. In her 1994 book “The Dance of Deception,” psychologist Dr. Harriet Lerner distinguishes between these concepts. She states that honesty can sometimes represent our uncensored thoughts and feelings, while truth requires tact, timing, kindness, and empathy with the other person. We should always strive to be truthful with those around us, since others sometimes view brutal honesty as aggressive, judgmental, or even arrogant. Uncensored honesty can also jeopardize our relationships and careers[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
