Are you a study cheat? And who are you really cheating?

| January 21, 2010 | 0 Comments

Cheating on exams and other forms of study has been around the generations. Today it is becoming even easier to cheat us this article illustrates:

Teens turn to the net, mobiles to pass tests

The article covers a number of interesting points on the subject of cheating. Of particular note is:

“Only half of the students surveyed considered mobile telephone or Internet cheating as “serious offences” and a significant number of teens did not deem those tactics cheating at all”.

When you know that you have cheated, deep down you will undermine your own self-respect. On the surface you might congratulate yourself on how clever you are, but the reality is that deep in your psychological foundations you are causing damage. The seed you have sown will in due course produce a destructive harvest for you. This is not just my opinion – this is one of those often unacknowledged laws of the universe. These laws work away in the background whether you believe them or not; and whether you like them or not.

Aside from undermining your own self-respect, cheating could enable you to get a job for which you are not truly qualified and for which you cannot fulfil the duties correctly. How smart is that? Think of the problems that could create.

Cheating prevents growth. It stunts you as a person.

When we cheat, we are cheating ourselves and those who interact with us, including loved ones. We are building our life on a shaky and flawed foundation. Cheats are plastic people – people who like to create an image.

Authenticity tastes good, feels good, looks good. Try it sometime. In the long run, you will feel much better.
