“LAW 4
Always Say Less Than Necessary
When you are trying to impress people with words, the more you say, the more common you appear, and the less in control. Even if you are saying something banal, it will seem original if you make it vague, open-ended, and sphinxlike. Powerful people impress and intimidate by saying less. The more you say, the more likely you are to say something foolish.”

I truly experienced the significance of this quote in my life. We all meet people & situations for a reason...don't make the mistake of thinking that we bump on each other accidently, certainly not. Some stay ,some move away. Thank those who moved away with folded hands for the lesson learned and never repeat those mistakes ever again...that's how a worthful life is lived (less)
