We have witnessed a lot of people who continue to talk and talk
over phone endlessly. Mrs. Pankaj was one such lady.
Once she starts talking, she will talk for 2 to 3 hours
continuously. One day, she made the call and ended it after 30
minutes. So the husband said. "Today there will be rain…you
stopped the talk after half an hour" for that Mrs Pankaj
answered. "Oh…no, that was a wrong number. I have to call
Dr. Sheela again".
I generally talk a lot. I can be a
good listener too. In new groups and
environment I generally keep a back seat and talk the least possible. Once I observe things and settle myself to
the new environment, I can talk freely to them.
I think it is my closeness which leads to long conversations. Some times our attachment to some topic can
lead for a long discussion. If I can
skip getting emotional with a topic or a person generally I can limit my
talking. Here I find a new me which wish
to rush out my thoughts and feelings endlessly.
They says that words are fire and don't use it unnecessarily.
What do you think can help us to shorten our talking but with more
affect? Is it an attitude change? Is it
improvement of skill set? Is it that we have to limit our enthusiasm? Or we require a detachment from some
matters? Who will share your trade
secrets to me?
