Telling The Truth Without "Spilling the Beans"

We all know the popular phrase, "The truth hurts"... Let's face it; Keeping honest without hurting someone can be tricky.  You know that "foot in the mouth" feeling when you wish you weren't still talking?  Yep, it happens to the best of us.

Utilize this one tip for telling the truth without Spilling the Beans:


- How much do they really need to know?  See, the way we communicate is the bedrock of who we are and how we impact others.  Sometimes, "the devil IS in the details".  When dealing with any subject, we must allow kindness to be our guide.  By pausing to consider our best possible reply, we can be comforted that it doesn't usually require much.  In these times, less is more, so by keeping it simple, we can stay honest without regret.

Remember, “it's the carefully edited truth".
