Today I worked on silence. What I consider silence, is the ability to keep my mouth shut when you can’t provide something positive from your words. The first example I have from today was early this morning when my dogs decided to wake up at 530. I was suddenly awoken to them eating on the floor below me. Instead of complaining about it when I went downstairs I said nothing. A failure of silence was this evening. I got out of practice and I had just learned that my friend could not partake in the dodgeball event tomorrow night. Instead of working on silence I unfortunately started a pointless argument with this friend. Overall I did take many positives from today.
I really agree that you need to work on silence. You tend to talk a ton and it annoys a lot of people. That friend you were agrueing with did not deserve that at all and you should be ashamed.
Agreed.
I love that you’re working on silence – just like the saying “if you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all.” Keep up the great work!
