I am done with my test of talking less this week and It was definitely harder than I thought it would be. I feel like I did very well when it was the first thing on my mind in conversations and just ok as I reflect back on the week and my interactions with people. I guess the greatest thing I learned from the week was that it was not about how much I talked but when and being considerate of other people talking to me. I had some nice compliments about me listening when it was something serious, but I want to be the type of person that when people see me they feel like they have communicated with me but also feel better about their day. I ALWAYS want to make people laugh, but not at the expense of a healthy conversation that doesnt need my certain “injection of humor” to spice it up. I would give myself a B – for the week and am happy for the experience. How are you challenging yourself to be better?
Holy Crap
