Planting The Seed Of Success Or Failure

"Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another."~Napoleon Hill

I can always count on Hill for words of wisdom in dealing with others!  How many times has someone talked you out of doing something and later you regretted that decision?  How many times have you just blurted out something without thinking what you would plant in that other person's mind?

You have the power to plant a seed of success or a seed of failure.  Which do you choose?  I think most people would choose to plant seeds of success however they never think about it so it could go either way.  There's a think line between success and failure and what you say can move it from one side to the other.

Roy H. Williams said I’m going to give you three reasons why this is a dangerous idea and then I’m going to give you three reasons why it’s brilliant. If the brilliant parts outweigh the dangerous parts, then this could be an idea whose time has come.”  If you think about this before you speak, maybe more people will be willing to bring their ideas to you.

Think twice before you speak because you have the power to plant a seed.  Make it a good one!
