Too much talk can kill a dream rather than increase the likelihood of its coming true. Often the words are a weak substitute for truly living an experience. Paradoxically, excessive verbalization can be a smokescreen set up to hide one’s inner being, which we believe (inaccurately) would be worthy only of rejection if viewed without its mask.

My family doctor asked, “What are you doing for fun?” “Everybody,” he continued, “needs something to look forward to.” There is more common-sense emotional advice in those brief words than there might be in most hours of psychoanalysis.
I feel that if I talk very much about what I plan to do it deflates my energy to actually do what I planned. Think, Do and Be Quiet works best for me.
Interesting!
