Mike's Revised 180, 90, 10

180
We recklessly neglect to choose our words carefully. The internet is becoming the predominant method of communication for people and companies around the globe. The use of email, instant messaging, blogs, etc make it fast and easy to post whatever is on your mind. We are becoming accustomed to the efficiency and speed allowed by these applications that make it easily forgettable to make simple, quick revisions. Because of the fact that we are hidden behind a curtain it makes it easy to forget about feelings and how you can put down others even if it isn’t your intention.
We want people to become aware that their words can be harmful to others and themselves. We want people to stop for just a second and carefully think before making any comments.
People tend to just say whatever comes to their mind without giving a second thought to their words. There are usually better ways to convey your message and it only takes a few seconds to change them, it might save you and others a lot of stress and grief.

We recklessly neglect to choose our words carefully. Communication is very important in any sort of relationship, especially for a healthy one, be it with a friend, a spouse or a company. What you say and how you communicate can make a big difference in how people respond to you. Being hidden behind a computer makes it easy to forget about feelings and you can put down others even if you don’t intend to. Wise communication is learning not only what to say, but what not to say. Just think.

Wise persons are those who think twice before typing once.
