Silence Is Golden

Sometimes it takes a break from talking, asking, engaging to confirm understanding. Sometimes it’s vibing to music, scouring a book, or viewing a movie that helps to gain understanding. Sometimes it takes silence to understand.

Silence has power. Silence has wisdom. Silence is learning. Silence is inspiring. Silence won “Best Picture”. Silence won world records. Silence makes sales. Silence makes connections.

Think about the role silence plays in your day. Maybe more is needed to think clearly, even objectively. Perhaps it’s just action not words that help you learn. What could listening, reading, or watching in silence be for you?

A cool quote (one of my favorites), now has a new and different meaning.

“What you do speaks so loud that I cannot hear what you say”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson

Go be silent.
