Itβs funny how if we speak the truth about what we know, itβs look down upon. We have to lie to succeed. The world is backwards.

I think of it more an issue of humility vs hubris. If I am not a good candidate, it would be a waste of everyone's time if I lied or exaggerated. I'm usually the one hiring in my equations so I won't do that to others. The fine line between confidence & arrogance is one I try to avoid...widely when possible π
