Planning / How-to Tips

Speaking less helps gain self control to an extent, very helpful at times. In the beginning, you might come across strong urge to speak up but it comes with time as you are able to make out the right spaces where speak and where not to.

I saw these tips on another website:

* Be quiet and be in the moment and see other things going on other than yourself.
* Don't gossip.
* Hold off before you say something and come from your heart. Push the "pause" button before you speak.
* Speak your revelations, otherwise, remain quiet.
* If someone is talking to you, respond with phrases such as "oh, is that right," "that must be terrible," you don't have to make a comment about things.
* Be quiet and your soul speaks. It is revealing a new way to see things. Cut back on phone conversations.
* Only communicate when it is practical, helpful or necessary.

Of course, the trick for me is not to forget when I'm with a group of people...
