One Sentence Speech

Speaking is a critical aspect of your life. How, what, and tone in your speech is a display of how you think and live. For example, if a person is harsh and negative and has a ‘can’t do it’ attitude with their speech, it reflects their thought process, and they are calling in defeat; they probably aren’t as happy as they would want you to believe, and probably aren’t living to their full potential. Think about it, how could someone live a positive life but dwell in negativity? I’ve heard and tested the fact that your brain cannot hold a negative and positive thought at the same time, which means you have to choose one or the other; which emotion are you going to choose? If you are thinking in the right direction, then your speech should follow that same pattern. Having speech that motivates, understands, loves, and cares can be transforming and uplifting. The bible even teaches us the benefit of speech in one sentence:

Proverbs 15:4
 A gentle tongue brings healing.”
