There is a saying that silent is gold speaks is silver. Hearing is gold, and speaking is silver. But there is a competition of speakers in this world, and everyone is busy talking, and no one is ready to listen.
Nowadays much problem arises due to not listening. God has given us two ears and one mouth. Which means we listen twice as much as we say. You must have noticed that the person who talks less has more respect.
People who speak less are considered wise people. So what is the reason that everyone is engaged in talking? There is no preparation to listen to, and the reason for this is incomplete knowledge. Because of insufficient knowledge, all people consider themselves to be wise.
Do not give knowledge or advice to anyone without asking for it, and it is harmful to you. Some great man has said that there are millions of words in the world to be spoken, but silence is the best answer. Being silent is a practice that not everyone can do.
An engineer was hanged for speaking.
I am going to tell you an exciting story in this regard. Three engineers built a bridge in Saudi Arabia, and all three worked hard. The bridge was made very well, but within a year, it collapsed, and hundreds of people died.
The ruler of Saudi Arabia felt very bad about this, and he immediately called the three engineers. After examining all three, it was proved that the bridge broke within a year due to their mistake.
The king sentenced all the three engineers to death. At that time in Saudi Arabia, there was a different method for hanging. The person who was to be hanged was tied to a stick, and a sharp-edged weapon would spin from above. The sharp weapon would have cut off the head of the suspended person.
First, an engineer was tied up. When that round-cutting wheel came near the engineer's neck, it stopped. Everyone started saying that Allah wants to keep this person alive, and it is the grace of Allah, so it should be left.
The second engineer was also tied to the wood, and then the beheading wheel was operated. Chakri then turned around and stopped near the engineer's neck. Everyone said, Allah Allah, and it is the grace of Allah that this too should be left because Allah does not want it to be hanged.
When the third engineer's turn came, he suddenly said, 'Allah Allah, you guys are speaking. You do not see that one nut of the wheel has become loose, and due to this, the Chakri cannot rotate completely.
The king immediately ordered that the nut bolt of this wheel should be tightened, and you must have understood further what must have happened to the third engineer. The root cause of this is the engineer himself, who gave the king advice without asking and lost his life.
This story proves that ever advising without asking can prove fatal for you. Second, we should not talk much, and the engineer was killed for speaking too much.
What is the use of speaking less or remaining silent?
Scholars say speak as little as possible. If one word works, don't say a sentence. If silence works, don't say a word. Because speaking less has many benefits.
1. Doctors say that speaking wastes energy. The more you speak, the more energy your body will spend. The less you speak, the more energy will be saved in the body. So talk as little as possible.
2. By speaking too much, often, such words come out of our mouth, which breaks the heart of the next. The fight among themselves often turns into a row, and those who speak less do not face this problem.
3. The war of Mahabharata in which lakhs of warriors attained Veergati. There were many reasons for this. But the main reason was some sentences like the blind son of the blind; there is a prostitute with five husbands.
This is the sentence that was the reason for the war of Mahabharata. If such a sentence had not come out of the mouth of Karna and Draupadi, then perhaps the battle of Mahabharata would not have happened, and the lives of lakhs of warriors would have been saved.
4. It has been said that the wound given by an arrow heals very quickly, but the harm inflicted by a young man does not heal for life. That's why those who talk too much often inflict the wound of a young man on others. that never fills up. So speak less.
5. Doctors, lawyers, big stars take money for speaking. Then why do you talk for free without any meaning? You make yourself in such a way that people urge you to talk only then speak.
6. Research has proved that the mind of the person who speaks less is sharp. If you want to sharpen your mind, start trying to talk less from today, and soon, you will see the difference.
7. To sharpen the memory, it is necessary to speak less. The memory of those who spoke less would have been faster. Because whoever speaks speaks speaks after thinking. That's why you should talk less to sharpen your memory.
how to make a habit of speaking less
Many people want to speak less but cannot say because he has been talking more than last years. This habit is not going to be broken in a day. So you have to try it.
Think before you speak; is it necessary to say? When you think, you will talk or not. Before going to sleep every night, consider how many times a day you spoke today? What was going to say, and did you say unnecessary?
You will find that you said more than 80% of unnecessary things that were unnecessary for the whole day. You will realize your mistake, and you will lose the habit of talking too much.
