The Power of your Voice

Isn't it amazing how well some children can speak? Speech is a very important part of your future child's identity. Teach your children to express themselves in the most intelligent way that can portray their love for themselves and others.

Speaking with a Purpose

Don't just say something because you have a mouth and someone's listening. Think as you say word by word.

End of the Year Thoughts #8

#8 Pay attention to those around you. It's good to be an active contributor but also listen very carefully because you can learn a lot.

Watch Your Words

Examine the way you speak. Are you always negative about your life? Do you also impart that tone when talking to others about their lives? Stand back and stop. You have no right to damage your life with your negativity nor do you have the right to do that to someone else. Choose positivity today

Silence is sometimes loud

Silence is sometimes golden. When I think of some of the people I admire, they all share one thing in common; they use silence at the right time. Silence when used right or in moderation is a great teacher to the self and others.
Sometimes we just need to take a break from all the noise and distractions and remain silent. Through silence we can spare ourselves a lot of pain or confusion; as remaining silent can give you more time to think before you open your mouth.
I believe some of the greatest ideas are born out of silence applied at the right time!
Great day everyone!!!!

Listening from the heart...

Sometimes it seems that speakers are highly valued in everyday life. Speaking is indeed a wonderful art when done well at the right time with the right words to the right person. Along, with speaking, listening is also a part of speech that should not be forgotten as it helps to foster effective communication. I love to speak to different people about different things but I am now learning that I have to listen well in order to not interrupt people, and also to gauge the course of the conversation. So indeed let's remember the old saying that "we have 2 ears and 2 eyes  but only 1 mouth."
