Chapter 151 Words are the measure of character 1
Volume 6 Chapter 1 Words are the measure of character [-]
Your words are more beneficial than silence
A man should be cautious in his words, cautious in his conversations with enemies, and cautious in his conversations with others.It is easy to speak, but once the words are spoken, it is impossible to take them back.Talking is like making a will, the less words you have, the less disputes you will have in the future.If you want to accomplish big things very smoothly, you should pay attention to the small things in your conversation.Hidden secrets have the meaning of oracle, and those who speak out are prone to failure.

——"The Book of Wisdom"

Language is an artistic act with provocative power.I think that the Italian religious reformer Savonarola used moving words to make Florence in the 15th century change from lewdness and extravagance to strict self-discipline; thousands of men, women, and children, under the instigation of the Pope, flocked to the Middle East one after another. Recaptured Jerusalem from the pagans and participated in the bloody "Crusades".

The language expression ability and the impact it causes are amazing, but not everyone can learn it. There are always some people who will encounter various language barriers when communicating with others.Those speeches that are full of loopholes are like people with physical disabilities. If they are not corrected by surgery, they will not only scare others, but also make themselves feel inferior.Excellent expressive ability not only makes it easy for others to understand and agree with you, but also makes you appear noble and cautious.But if you find yourself having trouble getting your tongue to samba, keep your mouth shut.

There is an automobile manufacturing company that is going to buy a large amount of fabrics for car interior decoration, and there are three textile manufacturers participating in the competition.

Before making a final decision, the company asked each of the three textile manufacturers to send a representative to the company on a specific date for a final round of negotiations.

Doyle, a business representative of one of the textile manufacturers, happened to suffer from severe pharyngitis at the time, but this made him a "blessing in disguise" and succeeded in the end.He later recalled the scene at that time and said: "I was introduced into a conference room, facing a number of senior executives of that company, such as silk fabric engineers, purchasing brokers, business managers and the company's president. I stood up, He tried his best to say a few words, but it was in vain.

"People were sitting around the conference table, all watching me in silence. I had to write on paper: 'Gentlemen, I can't speak because of strep throat. I'm so sorry!''I Let me tell you." said the president of the company. So he showed me the samples and explained the benefits of those samples. Then everyone started a discussion, and they all praised the advantages of my textiles. The president replaced me. In my place, I take part in the discussion, and the only thing I can do is smile, nod or make a few gestures.

The upshot of this very special meeting: I got that $160 million contract -- the biggest deal I've ever won in my life. "

Doyle concluded with a gleeful tone: "I knew that if I hadn't been unable to talk, I would not have gotten that order, because I was completely wrong about the whole thing. It’s really beneficial to speak up.”

When people feel that they are not good at speaking, don't speak out of words because of excitement. Words that do not pass through the brain are not only nonsense, but also put you in danger of injustice.Mouth is often the source of disaster, and it is likely to bring disaster to you because of your carelessness.

For those who are good at words, they should always speak after careful consideration.Because everyone will have various opinions as they please, and cite various reasons to explain the correctness of their judgments, but these judgments are usually driven by their own emotions, which are often biased.Therefore, when we speak, we must carefully consider the correctness of our point of view, and then make an effective and persuasive speech.

You have the right to be silent and it is good for you, but you cannot always be silent because that would make you unknown.However, when you speak, you must make your speech sound more precious than silence, this is the way of speech.
