The little things that matter series-Ep3: Words

How often do you talk to people and what kind of impact do your words leave on them?

This is one thing that people hardly ever seem to take note of, simply because the society doesn't have time anymore caring about what's being said, everyone is only caring about what's trending not caring about how the other party feels about it.
A persons word can either impact negatively or positively, this is were a blunt person tends to have issues because he\she says it the way they feel it; to them it may not be a problem cause they've let it out and that's fine but those words you've said has it actually done its job of correction or it has just made the person feel bad about him\her self.



 Words influence others and build relationships at work and personally. They can tear down relationships. Simply put, language holds massive, colossal power to manifest change, whether it’s good or bad. 
Marcus Aurelius, the Roman Emperor from 161 to 180 AD, considered to be one of the most Stoic philosophers who ever lived, said: “Perform every act in life as though it were your last.”
We can take this a step further and say: “Speak every word you say in life as though it were your last.” ( this are words taken from google)


Words go a long way in the mind of an individual, it is one of the things causing depression in our society today, it's not just about social media. Today people are afraid to engage in a conversation because they don't want to be silenced or laughed at, unfortunately that's the world we find ourselves today. You never know who is waiting to hear a little word of encouragement, a word to make a person smile or even laugh, a compliment to make a person think good about himself.

TIP:  SAY A WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT TO SOMEONE

Depression

  It’s hard fighting it every breaking day. Is it jealousy or is it greed or is it me not seeing myself where I want to be?. Many a time I’m drawn to taking my own life but when I think about the little set of people that’ll be hurt even though just for a short period I fight the feeling off just to wake up to it the next day 😪 . Yes everyone has problems and how do deal with them at times it feels like the solutions are adding more problems 😂 . To the world I’m this happy carefree child but am I really?.  Being too trusting can be an issue you know and that alone magnifies the feeling of depression when things go south. I may act all strong and rigid but deep down I’m just a child that is lost  😔 .
