Honesty

is the cornerstone of all success, without which confidence and ability to perform shall cease to exist.‖ --Mary Kay Ash It is well-known that some

professions

require people to demonstrate extra levels of

honesty

than other

professions

.

For instance

, those working in the medical and teaching profession are seen to be more honest than advertisers and

insurance

agents. The situation is the same all over the world and my country is no exception. In the following paragraphs, I shall put forth some reasons for

this

phenomenon. In some

professions

being honest is the best way to maximize profits in the long run. Let us take the example of a businessman. The most effective way for a businessperson to maximize profits over a long period of time is to follow the highest standards of ethics.

, journalists must provide news based on facts and cannot afford to present ill-founded news.

On the other hand

as

Thus

, undue concern with

in these cases might result in lower profits and perhaps ultimate business failure.

However

, it is difficult to generalize

professions

based on

honesty

.

For instance

, in the medical profession, some doctors may be prescribing an unnecessary battery of tests just for their benefit and some

insurance

agents may be telling all the positive and negative points of their

plans to their clients. To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying that, some occupations seem to be more honest than
