Daily Quote Part 1

"I don't make enemies, it's just I'm not afraid to speak my mind, which can sometimes mean people don't like what I am saying."

-Alan Sugar

Today and tomorrow I am trying something new. When I was searching for quotes today, I found two really good ones that were side by side that both corresponded with each other in a way. I actually have something to say to each of them that goes against what the quote is saying. So enjoy this part one, and look forward to seeing what other quote I desperately wanted to post on.

Speaking your mind can sometimes be a good thing. Sometimes we need to speak our minds to let others know how we really feel about what they are doing to us. Sometimes we need to speak our minds to be honest to others, especially if what you are saying could change them drastically and for the better. Sometimes people might not like what you are saying, and that will always be true. There will always be someone who just doesn't like what you are trying to say. Sometimes, you won't care. But just know that there are times to speak and times to hold your tongue. Speaking your mind can get you into a heap of trouble, wether the trouble you are in is provoking someone or making rude, true but rude, comments while someone is doing something or getting lectured, or something different like hurting someone's feelings ever day for so long that they give up on you. A lot of damage can be done if you don't hold your tongue at the right times, but just remember there will be times when speaking your mind is probably better and more helpful for someone else. Even if it means physically holding your tongue by pinching it with your fingers to refrain yourself from speaking, or stuffing food in your mouth to refrain from speaking, or just covering your mouth with your hand to refrain from speaking, or biting your tongue, or clenching your fists, or simply not saying anything, just know when to hold your tongue.
