Our words

                                                                                                        







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
