Avoid Frivolous Talks Many times we simply talk for the sake of talking and for
passing the time. We do not consider the real need. In a group of people some
persons use to simply open a topic, mostly Political or Social issues and
all the other persons will soon join the same and there will be heated
arguments. This happens mostly in clubs, canteens, rail travels, offices and so
on. They know that it is simply unproductive; but they cannot help avoid the
same. It does not cost to talk and argue. So many of us talk to the extent we are
able to talk until we become disgusted with our own self and call it off. Some
persons would simply peep and drop into a group and start their pitch
even without an invitation. Worse than this is, some persons will pull the
passers by and invite for a chit-chat. Keeping jaws glued is
equally inappropriate: Keeping Sullen faced without uttering a word in a group is
equally inappropriate. We need to express our views when it warrants. Few words
of profound importance uttered after a careful thought is always nice. This does
not mean that we should think ten times before we talk.
If we clearly notice we can find that Nine out of our Ten statements would
have been unnecessary. Make your statements short, sweet, firm and humorous.
After a long unworthy discussion, if you recall what you have uttered in the
last few hours, you would find it to be more or less nothing worth mentioning. Many deep
thinking people are of few words only. No need to express
your views spontaneously: Many times we spontaneously reveal our views without the
knowledge of the subject. When we are asked for a suggestion and our views on a
subject for a solution, we can always seek some time to analyze and tell our
views. And in case of our inability to
arrive at an appropriate view we can honestly admit our inability. Or else we
can express our views with appropriate caution stating the limitations. You are judged by
your Action, Deeds and also Words: The higher our position in society, office and home
every single act and word of us are important. Our words should be
dignified to meet with our position.
We need to maintain caution while we move with our lower strata group or else we
will be doomed to be branded unworthy for our position. Many know the rules
of the game, but fall victim to the herd: A group of people has always a special characteristic
called “Dominating Effect”. People of low ebb and of least voice also become
victim to the dominating effect of the group and raise their voice and fall as
pray to the situation. It needs extra ordinary mind set to be aloof from a group
and maintain our identity. A group is more or less a herd with respect to the
prevailing situation and we should be cautious not to be trapped and become a
victim of the group. An individual’s identity is always greater than a
group’s identity. A group is more or less a herd. A Smile is enough
instead of a goofy and frivolous talk: Talking consumes your energy. We should not waste it on
goofy and frivolous talks. A smile is enough when someone pulls you for a
frivolous discussion. Be humorous if you can. Great men are of few words.
