Being a successful liar is extremely important. 

Tips on Lying

·         Create lie before hand

·         Keep it short and sweet

·         Change the subject

·         Don’t repeat yourself

·         If you smile and they ask why, say you’re were thinking of a funny thing your fish did that morning.

·         If you’re caught, don’t apologize, shrug your shoulders and continue the conversation

·         DON’T DO ALL THE TALKING.  Listen, probe the person to continue talking, continue to listen

·         Try to keep the lying to a minimum, only do it when you really need to. 

 UPDATE:  If the lie you are trying to pass off as truth is exceptionally large, it helps if you start believing that is the truth as well.  You have to believe your own lie.  (This will also help protect against guilt)

    This is the best sentence I've read in a few weeks for sure.
