EVER TALK NEGATIVE ALWAYS TALK POSITIVE It is so easy to be sucked into talking about other peoples lives. Are you also tempted to talk about others? Sometimes it feels so good to give your inputs, especially if you have an inside info about a certain person. I am never good in having a conversation with people who loves to make negative comments about others. You might ask why? What do you think will be the guarantee, once I turn MY back, he or she will not talk about me? You got to be wise to choose the people you talk with. Telling something personal to people who are negative is just like publishing your story into a showbiz magazine. These people have the unique urge to share their inside stories to others. What do you think are the reasons why some people talk negatively about others? INSECURITY Insecure people want to make other people feel insecure. They feel bad and their self-worth is at the lowest specially when they see someone they know move ahead of them. They cannot control their urge to talk about or give comments about others. Insecure people want attention, they want to be the talk of the town and the topic of other people discussions. They will talk about how great they are and what they have accomplished in their lives, careers and goals. Insecure people have the uncanny gift of making themselves feel important and making others feel down and lousy after you talk to them. How Can We Avoid Becoming An Insecure Person? NEVER GIVE ANY COMMENT IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING GOOD TO SAY. Less talk. Less mistake. Even if you have something to say but if you know it will not build people up. Just keep it to yourself. You may never know what is the motive and agenda of the person asking for your comments or opinion about someone else. You may say something that you might regret in your life. You just need to be wise, they can easily manipulate your harmless comment and make it into a big issue. As the saying goes, what goes around, comes around. Negative words are just like boomerang. It may hit you once it comes back. Saying negative comments about others does not only hurt others but can also hurt yourself. NEVER GET INTO A CONVERSATION WHERE YOU’RE NOT PART OF THE EQUATION Avoid getting into a conversation that may involve others and you are not a part of. Friend A: “Do you know that she was bragging about her newest boyfriend, she is so full of herself.” Friend B: “Yah, you’re right.” How would you feel if others are talking about you? I am sure you will not feel good if you learned that you are trending as their topic. If it’s not our business, it’s none of our business. Let us not getting into something that we are not a part of. If you are not part of the solution, you are then part of the problem. There are better things in life to do and talk about. Let us use our God given resource, time and talent to do something that is constructive not destructive, productive not divisive. NEVER COMPARE YOURSELF WITH OTHERS It’s easy to become insecure when you constantly compare yourself to people who are more established and more successful than you. You feel lesser of a human being because you feel that you can never be good enough. This is not also fair to you, since you are two different people. You have your own strengths and they also have their own. You can never compare apples with oranges. You just got to be secure that God created you differently and uniquely, to fulfill a specific calling and destiny which no one can accomplish except you. You got to be secure that you were fearfully and wonderfully made by God your creator to establish great things in life. Stick to your strength, your core competence, your calling and you destiny. Do not be in a hurry and be patient for your time will come. THINK. REFLECT APPLY. newhope.swaultimate
