What do YOU talk about?
What you talk about signals others
About who you are
And what you care about.
"Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because
they have to say something."
--Plato
10 SECOND REALITY CHECK
What/who do you talk about?
Yourself? Others? Events?
Gossip? Helping others?
"One of the best rules in conversation is, never to say a thing
which any of the company can reasonably wish had been left
unsaid." --Jonathan Swift
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
People will decide to support you
Based on the quality and intellect
Of what you choose to discuss.
It is a reflection of you...
"Talk to a man about himself and he will listen for hours."
--Benjamin Disraeli
SO WHAT WILL YOU DO DIFFERENTLY?
Think about the things you like to talk about.
Do they match your image of person you strive to be?
"The leader has to be practical and a realist, yet must talk the
language of the visionary and the idealist."--Eric Hoffer
Have a conversational week!
Marsha
GOOD ADVICE:
"Saying what we think gives us a wider conversational range than
saying what we know."--Cullen Hightower
