Think Before You Speak
October 21,2022 Friday
We, human often speak without thinking in times of anger and other emotional state. Hence, we do not notice that we have hurt those people around us.
Being employed in a large company is somehow a blessing in disguise for me. Not because of my salary but because of the experiences and lessons I have learned over the years.
Working with different people and different attitudes is a headache at times. There are times that even I have tried to be patiently adjusting someone's attitude, still it pissed me off and affects my working state. Others speak out and swear and talk nonsense just to burst out their feelings. Though I am the opposite. No matter how angry I am, I really tried to think a lot more times before uttering some words. Because with anger, those words that will come out from the mouth can be as sharp as a knife. Hence, I will be discussing about the THINK acronyms.
T - Is it TRUE
When we talk back to someone else in anger or even just having a conversation with someone else, we should see to it that we are talking truthfully. Everytime we engage in a conversation, we can talk freely to give our opinion but we must see to it that it is true or else it will turn out to be gossip.
H - Is it HELPFUL
Before opening your mouth think first if the words that will come out from your will be helpful to the situation. Because it it doesn't help then, better not utter a word or two tyen.
I - Is it INSPIRING
Wherever we are, there are people that we do not know that feels motivated from the words we spoken. Hence thinking about the right words to give out, consider to inspire others and be motivated in life. Because you never know, those words that will come out to open is a life changing to some.
N - Is it NECESSARY
There words left unspoken because it doesn't have to be out. Others talk about this and others interact differently. So it will turn out to be a worst scenario instead. Talking to someone or a group be cautious in choosing your words, think if it is necessary to brought such topic or just leave it unspoken. Because unnecessary words sometimes ignite a fire.
K - Is it KIND
Thinking what words to say should be with kindness. Consider you are in there shoe and how will you speak out in kindness in order not to offend feelings. Because many are harass upon hearing someone else being tactless. So be brave to talk kindly.
Closing Thoughts
Everyday we meet different people and those who are with us too, have behaviors like being tactless. We can talk to them nicely to improve their communication skills and how they utter to speak. If not, what is important, we know how to think wisely before speaking up. Because some people may smile at you yet you never know they want to backstabbed you for speaking out some words that hurt them. Thus thinking many times before speaking out angry words can help us to be better and have a good relationship with the people around.
