Words are more important than you might think. Not the actual meaning of words is relevant, but the impact they have on your spirit and, consequently, on your mood. The expressions you use when you speak to others and, even more important, when you talk to yourself, determine how you feel because they express your way of thinking. For example, if you preferably use critical, derogatory terms when describing others, yourself or situations (I hate… How stupid…. and worse!) your offensive language has a direct effect on your personality and on your behavior. Reflect for a moment on what you like to think most and what kind of people you love to mix with. If you are honest with yourself, such a reflection should show you clearly what is the atmosphere you live in, what is the environment you chose and created for your daily life. Believing that words have no consequence is incorrect, because they do. Believing that you are not affected by the people you choose to spend time with is incorrect as well. Absolutely everything and everyone that has a place in your life, affects “you”.
