Silence is gold. But it’s so difficult to stop when you want to chat. Sometimes even ordinary idle talk is pleasing: when talking with friends, for example. Here are just situations where it is better to keep your mouth shut. But how to silence yourself?
Instruction manual
one
Analyze one day in your life. What did you do? Only work and various things took you time or something else? If you had time to talk with a girlfriend (friend) over the phone for two hours, chatting about life with colleagues for an hour, gossiping about the whole lunch break, and then discussing with someone for a couple of hours, for example, how to spend the weekend … That’s the result disappointing - you just need to learn how to be silent. At least in order to do something useful.

Take a closer look at others. Maybe you have long been getting on their nerves. If you notice that only you speak during a conversation with family for a long time, then something is clearly wrong here. A person with whom you have a very close relationship may well be able to answer the question: "Am I talking too much?" Of course, he will try not to offend you, but the slightest hitch in the answer will tell you what the truth is. Therefore, when the next time there is a desire to chat, mentally pull yourself and think about those who are so hard with you. Understand that sometimes an endless stream of words can scare away people with whom there is a desire to communicate.

When you are at home, you can put some water in your mouth. Then you will find out that people around you can also provide useful information and it can be interesting to listen to them. And then a silent person creates the impression of being smart. Think, because you do not want to look like a silly idle talk.

Try to be considerate. For example, when someone is in trouble, then chatter is absolutely inappropriate. Even expressing one’s opinion in such a situation may be unnecessary. An educated person who has a sense of tact, always tries to speak on business, clearly and clearly express his thoughts, not to engage in lengthy discussions on general topics. And if you want to give vent to emotions, then choose the right time and place for this.
