Today I learnt one of the greatest lessons in life; that our words
carry a lot of power. I said I wouldn’t make it to work last week Friday because
I will call in sick and I fell ill Thursday night and couldn’t make it to work
the next day. Few weeks ago, I did some studies on communication and I tried to
understand it from different angles. Here are a few pointers I got that I want
to share with you:
Our words don’t always mean what we want to express
Our words are sometimes heavier than what we really mean
Our words mean a lot depending on the tone and the gestures that
come with it
Our words either confuse the listener or the reader
Our words mean a lot when said slowly than when said in a rush.
I will share more with you later
