Every one of us know story of woodcutter and axe, it’s kind of ideal story to imprint a simple moral: Honesty is best policy. How many of us believe??? Immediate answer is ‘Everyone’ now if I reframe question i.e. how many of us follows? Here diplomacy come into picture. Some will say I follow some times, some will say depends upon situation…and some will support their answer with quote by Lord Krishna i.e. If you speak lie for benefit of someone then it is equivalent to 100 truth!!! This changes the definition of moral so we redefine it as Honesty is best policy: condition apply.

I was an honest person till standard 4^th after that I adapt modified definition of this moral. This transition happed due to small incident. During standard 4^th I was fascinated with all superhero’s, animals, cartoons etc. so this craze laid me with collection of stickers and this was the main reason for me to venture into business of stickers. Today I called it my first entrepreneur venture into Indian economy. I had started this business with my best friend Pratick (He is C.A now and doing well in his life) and we used to sell sticker of 25 paisa (Rs 0.25) at price Rs. 2 per sticker. Here I learned first lesson that Honesty is best policy: condition apply. Further due to intervention of our parents our first successful business venture was came to end.

As someone said think globally so if we see today’s world how much honesty maintain by marketers? So here again moral get modified. When we purchase any item and we come to know that we bought it for high price so again we modified our prices while showing that item to anyone because we don’t want anyone should count us in class of fools. If we analyze our past we had modified this moral several times because of numerous reasons. So is it wrong or right it matter of debate but as long as benefits are there conditions will always apply.
