Words – Humans speak on average about 10,000 to 20,000 words per day. Females speak more words than Males – no surprise here :). We don’t really think about it, but that is enormous power we all have and we can make huge impact (both good and bad) with that kind of power. Simple choice of words can make a difference between someone accepting or denying your message. Goal is to get the message across and if you are not achieving that – choose to be quiet / find a better way. Observe more and Listen more every day – you will catch yourself Speaking Less. Sometimes Silence is very powerful – think back to that argument, heated discussions with your teenager etc – what if you just held your peace and figure out another way to drive the message through instead of sharing lot of words. If you are in a position of power, influence, if you are a parent, someone who might be looking up to you – every word you utter have an enormous responsibility attached to it and you owe to all those people. Communicate a thought process, Deliver a conceptual conversation; Don’t just speak words – because it will be heard . Words are your power – you can make or break with them! Also once spoken Words (especially the ones that come out at not our best times) can never be forgotten they can only be forgiven. How many things have we said in our lives that if we can only take back – too late they have been heard!
So here is what I leave you all with today: Argue like you are right and Listen like you are wrong ! Don’t raise your voice , better your argument – like I was told once as a little girl (these words stuck with me)!
Words have enormous power – so speak wisely! Love Live Learn, Till next time !!
