Tittle: How to Lie Effectively
Hello, everyone. My name is _______ , and I am going to be speaking to you today about how to lie effectively.
As we know, lying is not good. There are many consequences of lying. Among others, it can cause distrust, make you stressed because it can add to problems and even damage relationships. But in practice, in everyday life, there are times when we need this ability. Like when your boss wants you to work all week but you need a break. Or when you feel too lazy to come to a friend's event that is not too familiar to you. Now I'm going to give you some strategies you can use to make your lies more believable.
First, avoid involving others in lies. If you involve other people in creating alibis when you lie, you will have a harder time making up lies than you need to. Because if the person checks your alibi, it will be easier for you to know that you are lying to him. The tip is to tell the people involved first before you lie. Because some people don't feel comfortable being part of your lie.
Second, make sense of your lies. When you lie, make sure the information you share is reasonable and trustworthy. Don't exaggerate your lies to the point where listeners will start to question what you're saying. So, make your lie as realistic as possible. Think about whether the person you are lying to will think it makes sense or not.
Third, avoid touching your face. When we are nervous, we tend to touch our faces. It will be easy for the person to whom you are lying to know that you are lying. So, keep your hands away from your face and don't look stiff. Do not rub your chin or nose or comb your hair with your hands all the time.
Fourth, pay attention to your eye contact with the other person. Because of their anxiety, liars tend to take their eyes off the listener when they are lying. Make normal eye contact with the person you are talking to so they will trust you. Don't turn your face away from the person you're lying to, because doing so will arouse suspicion.
Fifth, keep your voice intonation normal. One of the things we often don't realize when we lie is the change in our voice. Our voices will tend to be higher than usual. So that the person you are lying to does not get suspicious, then actively moderate your tone of voice at your usual voice level. Adjust the intonation of your voice to the situation at hand.
Keep in mind that lying to other people is a bad thing. The tips that I share in my speech today are not meant to invite you to lie. So don't take this advice word for word. Instead, use these tips as your guide to finding people who are lying to you and protecting yourself from liars in your environment.
Thank You.
