What words can do to you and what you can do to your words?
I know if you are reading this you would have got hurt in your life at some point of time..
Take a deep breath and think on the reasons that could have probably hurt you.
Is it because you watched a sad movie?
Is it because you did some mistake?
Or is it because you listened to something that you shouldn’t have listened at all in the very first place?
WORDS..
What words can do to you? What you can do to your words? Words can do anything. Words can be God. Words can be evil. Words can do anything to your mind. Awesome words can give you strength to fly high. Evil words have equally enough strength to shatter you.
If words can do this much to you, what can you do to your words? Take some time to realize what kind of words you use in your day to day life.
Let me give you some phrases on how certain things are spoken and how much better it could have been spoken?
I want you to do it right now! --Authoritative
Can you do it now? It would be better if we prioritize and finish it now. --- Friendly, collaborative
Why dint you do that?!!—Authoritative
I think you missed to do that. So please do that ASAP. -- Friendly, Understanding
You did lot of mistakes. You wasted lot of time! – Authoritative
Good that you made a mistake. You will learn not to do that again. Please be careful next time. – Friendly, Supportive.
I know I will get objections stating that you should be yourself. Not to please people. You can be anything you want at the cost of others.
Oh, Please!
To which person would your heart listen to? In other words, to which person you would follow with all your heart?
By being authoritative you only extract something from someone. But by being friendly you conquer the world and the people living in it.
Your words can bring in more enemies. Your words can bring you more friends.
You are what you choose to be. You are what you chose to speak.
From some people we learn how to be. From some people we learn how not to be. If you are that third person, what would you choose? How to be or How not to be?
Choose Friendliness, Choose Happiness. Not just in words but in deeds as well. You can win hearts.
Be happy and keep going.

First of all nice write up.
ReplyDeleteYeah i agree words do have the power to build an empire also to shatter it.
But what i have observed in real life scenarios is
If someone starts abusing us for some reason , if we are not giving back with a firm somewhat abusive reply these people take that as advantage thinking us as cowards and add fuel to their abusive words
So not sure how long these friendly conversations can take hold when the other person is literally abusing u
But the way u have framed ur idea is cool
Keep rocking on net

Thanks Ajeeth :) I believe that Friendship and trust can do wonders than by being authoritative. Our whole nation mourned for Dr. Kalam. What could be the reason ? :)
DeleteWhat if i ask is he the only man of humble in this earth the fact is only one of a million humble or friendly r whatever u call it are being honoured
ReplyDeleteMy approximation is about atleast 30 percent of people are humble or atleast like to be but are bullied over
And yeah Dr APJ sir is recognised one in a million
What word do u have for the rest 99999 people who struggle just because they like to be friendly or humble
No offence just a thought debate ;)
Way to go bency :) :)
