A post for Trust 30 … the 30-day writing challenge I’m participating in.

Today’s Prompt:

Speak Less

.

What I must do is all that concerns me, not what the people think. This rule, equally arduous in actual and in intellectual life, may serve for the whole distinction between greatness and meanness. It is the harder, because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know I. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

I once received a fortune cookie that read: “Speak less of your plans, you’ll get more done.” What’s one project that you’ve been sitting on and thinking about but haven’t made progress on? What’s stopping you? What would happen if you actually went for it and did it? (Author: Laura Kimball)

My Response:

1. I hope to finish …
2. I’ve been dreaming of …
3. I am going to go …
4. My next big project is …

Do you really think I’ll finish those sentences after reading … speak less of your plans, you’ll get more done?

Instead I’m going to get some things done.

What about  you? What are you waiting for? Go get something done!
