But doesn't that work only when people are being honest and forthright? I knew someone who lied constantly. We had lots of conversations about it. Finally, I decided that we had processed his instinct to lie and I took the leap to trust and to accept what he said 'at face value'. It had a serious impact on me when I learned he continued his lying ways.
