I used to be an idealistic person.Never cheated or lied.?

Question

Then, i saw that a lotta people who did lie and cheat(in school) always seemed to do better than me.It piss*d me off and i decided i don't want to be some loser who gets left behind.So, i threw my morals and my integrity away.I got into the whole lying cheating thing(i m talking abt cheating on tests here).
Now, when i look at myself,i feel sick and disgusted.I hardly recognise myself anymore.
So, now i want to stop lying and cheating and get back to the way i was.
My question is, is this possible?Does the phrase "once a liar, always a liar" apply here?
I mean, lying one day, and then deciding to NOT lie the next, feels kind of weird(I have been thinking abt this for a long time).
I am really troubled abt this.What should i do?

Answer 1

I'm glad your realized that it was wrong to lie and cheat,and you're regretting it,that's the 1st step towards change,i don't believe that"once a liar, always a liar" ,because people need chances to show they can change,maybe some people won't believe you as they used to,but when they see that you're not lying anymore,they'll come around
the most important thing dear,to believe in yourself and your ability to stop cheating & lying,i know i do:)
God Bless You.

Answer 2

dr what i think Lie , Sin realy means all depends upon u what u think infact ur soul think what if ur soul feel that ur r not suppose to do that it senses mad but it is true andar sa awaz to aati hee ha , what i think going opposite way is different
Infact it is true having a life like HarishChader way is difficult Dr every body wants to be on top ,Better than others.
What i think Lie is not always a Lie unless untill it hurts someone's feeling , for a positive end(goal) ,their is nothing wrong in Lieing

Answer 3

First of all decide if you "really" want to change cos later you may again feel that being honest isnt the best thing so you may go back to lying,cheating again. If you really think that this change will help you then nothing can stop you, its your choice.

Answer 4

I think you definitely can go back the way you were, but the thing that cheaters get away with what they do and are successful will still bother you. I know it bothers me too. Don't feel disgusted, I think you're too hard on yourself, you can't be perfect all the time. What happened, happened, And because you ask yourself this question, it shows that you didn't loose your morals.

Answer 5

you have lost your idealism ,that great
you lost your self respect thats bad
the only way to get back your self respect is to be honest with yourself
then to be honest with others
heh i think your allready half way there
kep it up
if you back slide ,forgive your self ,be honest with yourself
then be honest with others
its simply reminding you to be true to you
being troubled is because god sent an angel who walked that path that angel was redeeming themselves when they did the same thing,listen to the angel and save you and the good sole god sent to rescue you and her.
you are not alone in the long run your inner voice has guided you ,stay true
dont fake it
make it.
it saves you having to do it later ,but you saved someone else,
probasbly more than you know by being honest about it now
keep resisting that negative voice that says theres an easy way ,you attract negative angels too ,just by thinking a negative thought it links them to you
avoid the thought they cant tempt you again
the angel that was sent to save you has cleared your aura ,now your on your own
trust the system its fail proof ,dont back slide and the evils cant get you again
ps thank the angel of concience god sent to guide you back to the best path ,dont feel wierd learn thec lesson the easy way and just thank god
you can help yourself by not envieing the easy path you now know isnt that easy to escape from
trust yourself
think good happy thoughts.
we are all learing as we go , aint life grand.

Answer 6

Well that depends on the situation. If you lied about something, depending on what it is, you may have to "live" by your lie. Unless you decided to come clean, then you can just throw them aside and never be a "liar" or "cheater" again!

Answer 7

u r in dual mind. conflict. that means u have not changed \. ur innerself is still OK u can change. It is better u change instead of having two personalities,conflicts, be one. and urself. those who are doing are not double personalitied people they think lieing is correct. not feel guilty. ur not that. so u change.

Answer 8

Never cheated or lied? You weren't idealistic, but delusional.

Answer 9

Stop cheating & lying,you'll be glad you did

Answer 10

you were able to change from a good person to bad, it's very possible to change back to good. it only takes a decision from you.
