First of all, I would like to thank you for your wonderful comments which really add value into the post which others can read it too.

I got to agree that people who are using fancy words are just boosting their egos and not doing what they should be doing which is communicating. What is the use of using those fancy words and the other party don’t understand anything of what you are saying?

Our thoughts make our words and our words make our reality. So by using words that belittle ourselves, we are placing limits on us that will cause us our success.

Your words effect both YOU and the people you communicate with. This is one of the key factors, in my opinion, in terms of THINKING success! Right a way, you can tell what type of attitude a person has, by simply listing to how they speak.

Every day you hear so many people bashing themselves. e.g. “I could never do that” or “I guess I wont be buying that Porche after all” or “I’ll never be as successful as Donald Trump”. It’s small talk and you hear it all the time. The individual puts one more nail is his coffin simply by speaking negatively.

I think we all slip useless and negative thoughts without noticing it. Take me the other day before writing an exam. I’d have a period where I would have positive thoughts toward going a head with it and then the rest of the time was spent bashing it. “Why do I need this anyways. Next year I won’t even remember it.” Then a few days later I decided to put a 100% in everything I do. And you know what, it’s working, gradually.

After reading a few articles from this blog, I’m pretty sure you’ve read the book Magic of Thinking Big. I remember reading a chapter on this very topic. David Shwartz, the author of the book, explains that instead of using big or fancy words we need to use the RIGHT words. I know a few people who use fancy words(it’s obviously an ego thing), personally I think it sounds stupid. I’m much more eager to listen to a person who focuses on communicating instead of one who likes yakking off words that aren’t effective. Just for the sake of looking educated(most of the time is backfires).

I think we need to listen to ourselves speak one day and work on correcting it the next. Our words are so important. Most people know this in the back of their minds but don’t pay enough attention to it. Even well the educated get caught blowing themselves over. I find it sad that people do this, when it could be so much easier. Such a simple adjustment could make our lives soooo much better.

It takes time for someone who’s used to thinking negatively. Day by day they have to work on their thoughts, speech, actions and take care in what they communicate to others. Ask, “does my speech tell others that I think good of myself, or do I speak like someone with poor self esteem”

I want to comment you on a great post! And also, I love your blog–your topics are refreshing and insightful and I can’t wait to read more. In the mean time, I have you on my RSS reader.

Keep it up!
