That fact that dishonesty is a huge part of the theme is compelling.
That is, Petersen says being honest leads to a good life. That is a great goal.

Sure, humans are flawed and we **** that up all the time.
But trying to be as honest as possible is better than the opposite.
I believe people lie to themselves constantly until realizing how futile and even destructive that can be.
But we lie ourselves into all sorts of trouble.
   - I don't drink that much.
   - I have never been disloyal to my better half.
   - I fear nothing.
   - That wasn't my fault.
   - Etc.

Meanwhile, you are drunk while visiting your whore, afraid of her telling someone.
If your partner was only more understanding...

Being honest would knock all that **** out of your life.
If you don't want to lie, you won't do stuff you have to lie about.
