   %INTENTIONAL INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE HONEST COLLUSION 950818

     People who seek to be influential in intentional ways
need to deal honestly with contextual situations and other
people.

     Dishonest   people   are  not  well  informed   about
contexts,    interactions,   relationships,    and   other
considerations which influence how their own behaviors are
influential---because     dishonest    people     alienate
themselves, excommunicate themselves, from the people with
whom  they  interact.    Dishonest people become  ignorant
people, and do not have reliable  information  in terms of
which  to  intentionally be influential in the  ways  that
they intend.

     It  is unlikely that a dishonest person will be  able
to keep track of what parts of all that of they  say/do is
honest,   and  what  parts  of  all that  they  say/do  is
dishonest;  and so they will confuse themselves as well as
others.

     It  is  very  likely that  a  dishonest  person  will
engender  distrust in other people, excommunicate themself
from other people,  be uninformed  or  mis-informed  about
other  people,   and  so be unable to  influence  them  in
intended ways.

     The  dishonest person often is very influential---but
not in the way which is intended;  unless the intent is to
be  totally destructive.   The influence of the  dishonest
person is in the direction of disintegration---not in  any
coherent  intended direction.   Dishonest people  are  not
respected in any enduring and meaningful way.
