Volume 6 Chapter 2 Words are the measure of character [-]
Learn to express yourself clearly and fluently
To be good at expressing yourself requires not only clear thinking, but also active thinking.Some people are good at conceiving thoughts, but they always end up with difficult births, because without clear expressions, the birth of thoughts (thinking and judgment) is difficult.Some people are like wine jars that are big and small, they hold a lot, but they pour out very little.Decision is born of will, and expression is of thought, and both are great gifts.Those with clear minds are welcomed, and those with confused minds are rejected.There are times when ambiguity is much stronger than vulgarity.But if we don't know what we're saying, how can the audience accept it?

——"The Book of Wisdom"

A philosopher said this: "There is a way in the world that can make people accomplish great things quickly and be recognized by the world, and that is excellent eloquence."

Speech is the garment of thought, and it expresses a man completely.A rough or beautiful character will naturally be revealed in rough or beautiful diction.People love best the kind of words that come from sincerity.

Although a person may not be able to fully describe himself, most of them can identify and reveal themselves.Unconsciously, consciously or unconsciously, in front of others, he often draws his own outline and portrait with every sentence.

Speech is a serious thing, and no eloquent man will abuse it.At the same time, I also advise you not to force others to listen to you; if others are not willing to listen, it is best to keep silent.Because the other party may have a considerable understanding of the importance of words, so that they cannot accept it optimistically.

People who think they can never talk enough, often talk too much, and they are bound to talk too much.A long tongue and a simple mind are often married.The most important thing is to speak well and speak little, and that can be called the art of speaking.

People's hearts are different, each as its face.Everyone's life experience, thoughts and emotions are very different. If we are not good at talking and discussing with all kinds of people, we will inevitably fall into ignorance and self-righteousness.A man who is ignorant and self-righteous is a man who is not welcome everywhere.Moreover, as long as everyone thinks about it: Are their various views, opinions, interests and opinions born with them?Is it immutable?Is it never missed?The answer must be: no.On the contrary, they are formed slowly and through long periods of cultivation, and they are often subject to change.

Few people usually seem to realize that conversation is such a valuable value in life.People often arrange their own life, work, and watching movies, but they seldom arrange themselves to find someone and have a good talk for several hours.

People don't think about what to talk about together, and people rarely introduce each other for the guests, so that they can talk about things of common interest.Nor did it occur to people that, when necessary, they should take the lead in talking about a topic that would be of interest to all the guests.In particular, one should not make those guests who do not know anyone feel sulky and embarrassed, just sit there dumbfounded and silent.When visiting people, people dress neatly.But as for what to say after meeting someone, it is very vague.Not only are many people not always ready to talk to others, in fact, they are a little afraid of talking, and even think talking is a annoying and troublesome thing.Some people are afraid of meeting strangers, and when they meet someone with a higher status than them, they are not only afraid, but also a little shy.If at a meeting they have to attend, they sit there and do nothing except show their hands to vote, they cannot stand up to object and add to the opinions they agree with; nor can they refute and criticize the opinions that people object to.

Why do people become like this?It may be because of the lack of collective life since I was a child, and I don’t know people too well; it may also be because some conversations have failed, and in order to avoid the failure of the conversation, I simply refused to speak; it may also be because I misunderstood the true meaning of doing more and talking less , regard not speaking as a virtue; it may also be influenced by the idiom that disaster comes from the mouth and think that not speaking is a way to protect oneself.

It is a sad thing if a person has neither the wit to speak well nor the judgment to keep silent.
