What about that evil tongue???

   --by Marsha D. Egan, CPCU, ACC
 

Leaders are straight shooters.

They don't gossip

Because they know how hurtful it can be.

 

10 SECOND REALITY CHECK

Do you gossip?  Much? At all?

If you do, what do you gain from it?

What productive thing results from gossip?

No sword bites so fiercly as an evil tongue.--Sir Philip Sidney

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Gossip hurts others.

But it hurts you more.

People don't trust gossips.

Whoever gossips to you will gossip about you. --Spanish Proverb

SO WHAT WILL YOU DO DIFFERENTLY?

Share only that which you know,

And that which won't hurt... anyone

Stop listening to others' gossip

Be positive; everyone has strengths.  Everyone.

"Never tell evil of a man, if you do not know it for certainty, and if you know it for a certainty, then ask yourself, 'Why should I tell it?"  --Johann K. Lavater

Have a warm, caring week!
