That was the title of the sermon J.K. Jones gave at Traders Point Christian Church yesterday. While in this post I won't include the scripture references, I believe the five points he made are extremely relevant to all of us as leaders, team members, and professionals (and as human beings).
He suggests asking these five questions regularly:
Are my words true?
Are my words helpful?
Are my words inspiring?
Are my words necessary?
Are my words kind?
If you take the first letter from the key word in each question: true, helpful, inspiring, necessary, kind; you get THINK.
Asking these questions, and adjusting our actions accordingly will make us better communicators, better team members, better leaders . . . and better at just about anything else you can think of.
In short, words matter, so THINK.
