Salaams and Good Morning !
Here is your daily dose of Wisdom for Living Your Best Self!
We’ve all done it. Regretted saying something the moment it came out. We may have said it too harshly, or in a state of anger or not having paused to consider whether it was a good time.
Although we may apologize profusely (that is if we have the slightest desire to maintain the relationship), we get the sinking feeling that the hurt caused is deep and that healing it will take time.
Can we prevent such slips of the tongue which cause such damage to our relationships?
Maybe not entirely but we can certainly make progress towards minding our words if we THINK before we speak.
Here are some time-honored questions to consider in the pause before we speak:
Is what I am about to
say:
T – True?
H – Helpful to the other person? To our relationship? To getting my message across?
I – Inspiring rather than discouraging?
N – Necessary? Is it necessary at this time?
K – Kind? Am I saying it in a way that is kind and respectful rather than harsh and critical?
Wishing you a day full of positivity, purpose and peace.
Warm blessings
Marzia
