MORAL QUOTE:
A wise man listens to all, but never responds to all. It's gainful to always usher your utterances with distinct, decence, and discretion.
QUOTE EXPLANATION:
The SCRIPTURE says we should be quick to listen, but slow or be wise to respond. Be very careful with your utterances, it may work as a sword, and at the same time, work as a strength.
It's also pertinent to know that words are like eggs, once they land, they can never be retrieved. It's a very wise choice therefore, to think deeply before speaking.
FIVE THINGS YOU MUST DO BEFORE SPEAKING ANYWHERE:
1. Only speak when necessary: In some gatherings you may not need to talk except you are invited to do so, and in some, you may not need someone to tell you to say something. It all has to do with your sensitivity.
2. Think before you contribute: Whatever we speak out definitely comes from within - we must have thought about them before speaking out. Hence, the need for positive thoughts is greatly important.
3. Don't think of being partial: When you are in a position to make a judgement, never think of favouring any of the parties more than others. If this happens, it will affect your output due to prior internal judgement.
4. Don't feel inferior in any gathering: As leaders or potential leaders, we must feel confident in every gathering we find ourselves, because inferiority complex is a major destroyer of man. The effect is always negative. When you are confident, you will speak boldly.
5. Have good intention always: Our intentions are what manifest in our utterances most of the times, no doubt about that. Therefore, if we always have good intentions to every human and in every meeting/gathering, definitely our speeches would be peaceful and sensible.
CONCLUSION:
Thinking wisely before speaking is an antidote to ridicules. It makes you closer to wisdom all days and replenishes your wisdom whenever you do a mental job. It pays a lot. Be a creative thinker. It commands a lot of fortune and embraces huge accolades.
