The power of your words

Think more and regret less

Once your words are out, you can’t take them back.  Why start moving your lips before you’ve had the chance to listen and think?

Resist the urge to get chatty before you know what to say. It insults your intelligence. Avoid being snarky, sarcastic and gossipy – hurtful words have a way of boomeranging back.  They undermine your integrity.

In so many areas of life, fewer words connote power.  Short answers and silent pauses, appropriately applied, reveal your inner authority.

Let your words have meaning and influence.  Think more, regret less.
