But then mentioning that one of the best ways to make others think you're deontological is to make yourself think you're deontological...

Or at least implement and espouse some deontological rules. You can convince yourself of these rules however you like. Once you believe that you are better off not lying, then you ought to make a deontological-style pre-commitment against lying.
