CTM Episode 36: “Are You Speaking Life Into People?“

In today's CTM episode Isaiah and Anthony discuss the importance of speaking life into people, and how powerful our words can be. 

Hung By the Tongue is an amazing book that was the inspiration for today's episode, so if you enjoy the topics that are covered make sure you go and buy the book. 

Our words carry enormous power. They have the power to build people up, or tear them down. 

Our thoughts are determined based on the information we take in on a day to day basis. Make sure you are taking in good information, and avoid useless negative information. 

Our hearts are shaped over time by the repetitive thoughts we have.

If we have a good heart we will naturally be more uplifting, if we have a dark heart we will tend towards putting others down. 

When you speak, avoid putting people down at all costs. If 99% of what you say is positive, but you allow that 1% negative to hang around, then in a time of weakness you will hurt someone, and that percentage of negative speech will grow over time. 

What you say is also an input that can drive your thoughts, so ensure that you are speaking life into yourself and not putting yourself down. Too often we are our harshest critics and we only hurt ourselves.
