When to speak – when to remain silent
Funny, isn′t it? Here I am contributing to more noise on the internet advocating to refrain from it. Being an avid talker myself – I was particularly intrigued when I read the quote for the first time asking myself how much gruntle and ridicule I have created over the years.
How many of us have sat through endless monologues of very little enlightenment? Despite being a heavy contributor to noise, I have also sat at the receiving end.
Lets pause for a moment. I like the analogy that humans have twice as many hearing devices compared to speaking.
For me, it is a fight – thanks, Mr. Lincoln, for your words of warning.
Stay curious – stay relevant.
