The most significant part of your question is also your answer.....YOU.
You are the only one who holds all of the truth and can change your actions. No one can change or fix this problem for you. Ask yourself why you are lying...look deep within yourself and all shall be revealed. Seek and ye shall find...knock and the door shall open............
Can you face this person (yourself) and change your ways? Mind you, everyone lies to a degree but are your lies hurting you and others...what are the benefits?
First, don't give them an opportunity to lie. If you know they ate the last cookie, don't ask them "Do you know who ate the last cookie?" If you know they came in after curfew, don't ask them "Did you get home before curfew?"
Second, if you know they lied, confront them calmly. Don't get trapped in a "Yes you did / No I didn't" argument. It just makes things worse. Tell them how you know they lied and what the consequences of lying are. This is important: the issue is not what they did or didn't do, the issue is that they lied about it.
The consequences will vary, depending on your family. But the most important consequence, and one that affects everyone who lies, is that trust is lost. It is no fun not to be trusted, and the liar needs to think very hard about that.
Third, when the person tells the truth, reward them -- tell them you are happy they told the truth, that you appreciate it. Encourage good behavior. This may be the most important step of all.
Lying can be a hard habit to break. Habitual liars might need to talk to a counselor about changing behavior.
Because you are a self-concious egoist who's only means to gratify the people around you are with lies rather then substantial actions
give them always chances to speak meanwhile u just smiling at them...........
