Speak and Act from the Heart
by Mary Andres Russell
Have you noticed how powerful it is when someone speaks from the heart?
There is a Latin proverb that states, “Sincerity gives wings to power.” When we speak from our heart, we engage the listener and gain credibility through honest communication.
Authentic people are the same to the outside world as they are on the inside. Their thoughts, words, and actions have consistency. They say what they mean and mean what they say.
Authenticity is possible only if we have a clear conscience. That involves doing whatever it takes to clear the record between yourself and those around you.
This month, take authenticity to a higher level. Be honest with your words, tap into your heart, be respectful of others, and show your true colors.
“We know what a person thinks not when he tells us what he thinks but by his actions.” Isaac Bashevis Singer
