The second you're not honest with yourself, you've lost everything.

I try to be honest with myself.

I am expressing myself truthfully. That is an important thing.

Start telling the truth now and never stop. Begin by telling the truth to yourself about yourself. Then tell the truth to yourself about someone else. Then tell the truth about yourself to another.

Sincerity is the foundation of the spiritual life.

The more sincerity is developed, the greater share of truth you will have. And however much sincerity a person may have, there is always a gap to fill, for we live in the midst of falsehood, and we are always apt to be carried away by this world of falsehood. Therefore we must never think we are sincere enough, and we must always be on our guard against influences which may carry us away from that sincerity which is the bridge between ourselves and our ideal. No study, no meditation is more helpful than sincerity itself.

I think it's more important to seek the truth than to try and be perfect, to be honest.
