Download or read book The Day I Stopped Lying written by Sudipto Chattopadhyay and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2019-03-25 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an anthology of essays, poems and one play by Chattopadhyay culled over a decade of writing. It delves into popular culture, literature, language, society, cinema, spirituality and matters of faith. It presents an alternate view on contemporary life and customs seen through the prism of his personal experience. The essential spirit is one of enquiry, and it deliberately steers clear of dogma. The text makes pertinent observations based on experience, study and interpretation of phenomena but does not propound any absolute theory. It is an informed Indian’s point of view in 2019. The book is reader-friendly with dollops of humor. Yet the discerning reader can also find insights from the subtly layered subtexts that propound the subaltern thought, albeit in a curious way. This book is essentially about myriad Indian thoughts, the mosaic of a complex civilization and an equally complex thought, constantly insightful and often bathetic and self-deprecatory. The nebula of Sudipto’s The Day I Stopped Lying is immense and immeasurable, forever expanding its arms in all directions… - Brahmanand S Siingh, National Award-winning filmmaker, author and speaker, based out of Mumbai. I’ve always wanted him to go, beyond movies into the world of literature because that where he truly belongs. I am so glad and proud that he has finally taken the plunge with his outstanding debut. - Sanjay Gupta, the veteran film-maker with superhits like Kaante, Zinda, Musafir and Kaabil to his credit

Book excerpt: When we decide to lie, we privilege some other value over honesty. In an attempt to conceal the truth from other people, we hide our true identity. People will see us differently and possibly give us overly positive feedback about our abilities. Lying can bring instant gratification and appears easy part to shy away from reality at the moment but inevitably makes life more complicated. It may cover the shame and the guilt for the moment, but will not render a realistic solution to the problem. We may gain an advantage or avoid confrontation in the short-term, but when we are caught we jeopardize the effectiveness of our communication and the strength of our relationships. Over time, the deception can eat away at our self-esteem; undermining our fundamental sense of dignity and worthiness. Honesty is a valuable trait that helps humanity in so many ways in this world where morality is at its lowest ebb. It sharpens our perception, improves our vigor, and engenders confidence and trust. When you rid your life of dishonesty, you speak more confidently, command more respect, and have better relationships with people. The pleasures of dishonesty are brief; they are succinct; they are ephemera but honesty opens the door to acquire knowledge because of the instinct of sincerity etched into your personality. Dishonesty really doesn't help anyone, including your very self. When you tell lies to cover up, you hurt your mind and put yourself out of touch with reality. People may not easily know that you are projecting deceit but right within you, the truth is known because you can only lie to people but certainly not yourself. When this turns into a habit you lose your sense of personal esteem and become a dishonesty person. The guilt of deception will hang on you unless you decide to change and come out clean. If you wish to live with respect and dignity, you have to stop lying and live uprightly.

With this book you'll be able to do away with the enslaving negative habit of lying: You'll be able to stop this habit which more often than not, prevents you from realizing your true potential and achievements in life. As much as you may not believe it, but the roots of the trait of lying start right after we are born, when as a child you decide to falsely alarm your mother of father because you seek some attention, thus you decide to cry aloud or do something more dramatic, like scream in order to get their attention.

Download or read book Lying and Deception in Everyday Life written by Michael Lewis and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 1993-02-05 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I speak the truth, not so much as I would, but as much as I dare...."-- Montaigne "All cruel people describe themselves as paragons of frankness.'" -- Tennessee Williams Truth and deception--like good and evil--have long been viewed as diametrically opposed and unreconcilable. Yet, few people can honestly claim they never lie. In fact, deception is practiced habitually in day-to-day life--from the polite compliment that doesn't accurately relay one's true feelings, to self-deception about one's own motivations. What fuels the need for people to intricately construct lies and illusions about their own lives? If deceptions are unconscious, does it mean that we are not responsible for their consequences? Why does self-deception or the need for illusion make us feel uncomfortable? Taking into account the sheer ubiquity and ordinariness of deception, this interdisciplinary work moves away from the cut-and-dried notion of duplicity as evil and illuminates the ways in which deception can also be understood as a adaptive response to the demands of living with others. The book articulates the boundaries between unethical and adaptive deception demonstrating how some lies serve socially approved goals, while others provoke distrust and condemnation. Throughout, the volume focuses on the range of emotions--from feelings of shame, fear, or envy, to those of concern and compassion--that motivate our desire to deceive ourselves and others. Providing an interdisciplinary exploration of the widespread phenomenon of lying and deception, this volume promotes a more fully integrated understanding of how people function in their everyday lives. Case illustrations, humor and wit, concrete examples, and even a mock television sitcom script bring the ideas to life for clinical practitioners, behavioral scientists, and philosophers, and for students in these realms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The roadmap for finding purpose, meaning, and success as we age, from bestselling author, Harvard professor, and the Atlantic's happiness columnist Arthur Brooks. Many of us assume that the more successful we are, the less susceptible we become to the sense of professional and social irrelevance that often accompanies aging. But the truth is, the greater our achievements and our attachment to them, the more we notice our decline, and the more painful it is when it occurs. What can we do, starting now, to make our older years a time of happiness, purpose, and yes, success? At the height of his career at the age of 50, Arthur Brooks embarked on a seven-year journey to discover how to transform his future from one of disappointment over waning abilities into an opportunity for progress. From Strength to Strength is the result, a practical roadmap for the rest of your life. Drawing on social science, philosophy, biography, theology, and eastern wisdom, as well as dozens of interviews with everyday men and women, Brooks shows us that true life success is well within our reach. By refocusing on certain priorities and habits that anyone can learn, such as deep wisdom, detachment from empty rewards, connection and service to others, and spiritual progress, we can set ourselves up for increased happiness. Read this book and you, too, can go from strength to strength.
