By your words

Perhaps they never told you, but they measure you by your words.  

You are rated by your words.

Your salary is gauged by the value of your words.

Your words make a place for you in the business in which you are engaged.

Neither jealousy nor fear can keep you from climbing to the top if your words have value that belongs to the top.

The organization is bound to give you the place that belongs to you if your words bring forth the right results.

You don’t have to put on, you don’t have to exaggerate.

All you have to do is to be natural, but make that ‘natural’ worth listening to.

Study your work. Study how to say things. Study how to use words that will change circumstances around you.

Make a study, an analytical study of words, then see how much you can put into a single sentence.

I don’t mean how many words, but how much you can put into the words so that men and women listen to your words they will be thrilled by them.

The clerk in five and ten cent store said, “Good morning, “ in such a way that I turned to look at her.

She has put something in her words.

She has put herself, her personality into her words.

Her words rang.

She sold me some pencils at two for five cents, but she sold them as though she were selling a Pierce-Arrow car.

Make your words work in the hearts of those who listen.

Trust in words. Fill them with loving truths.

Love always seeks the right word to convey its message without loss in transit.Clothe your thoughts in the most beautiful words, but don’t sacrifice pungency for beauty. Blend them.

I was on my way to work today reading a booklet by E.W. Kenyon, 'Singposts on the Road to Success' when I realised and started questioning myself the importance of words. He spend four chapters talking on the power of words, wherelse for the other topics, he hardly repeat them.

How significant can a 'Good morning' wish be as he had mentioned..

Did he meant to gain more knowledge of words in the field that I was in?

I stopped by KK hospital kopitiam to buy myself a drink before I head on to work. There was a boy, about 6 years old, stood beside me and ordered his drink too. He was rather polite.

"Thank you...thank you". He said in such a dearing way I turned to look at him. The uncle and aunty serving him looked at me, looked at him, and we both smiled.

Wow. I caught it. I was like the author who turned to look at the lady who said, 'Good morning'.

Now that I got a revelation of the power of our words, I ponder back the times my friend wished me good morning and I trace back one particular incident. I'm sure there were many others, but I especially remember hers.

What ministers life? It's the preaching of His Word filled with life that Pastor brings forth.

It's not about knowing the words or how much you know. Have someone say the exact words but when his words are not filled with love, faith and life, his words are nothing but empty.

Let your words cause those who listen to turn and remember =D
