Make it a discipline not to discuss your personal details with others. Develop
mystery, silence, and a secrecy about your life.
Don't allow people to know your deep, innermost self. Sure, you may have a
friend you want to discuss things with from time to time. But, generally
speaking, don't talk about yourself.
A powerful person doesn't waste words, doesn't waffle and drift, but instead,
thinks
through what he or she wants to say and expresses these thoughts succinctly and
purposely. The most powerful way to speak is with brevity.
Resist having to present yourself on the ego's stage. Quiet yourself and watch
others. As you silently observe, touch them with your feelings. Ask yourself
silently, of course how do these people feel? What are they actually saying?
What do they really want? Who are they? What is their strongest path? If asked,
what is my best response?
