Talk too Much and Don't Do it - (4540)

It is said that one of the main principles in the study of Hermeticism is about keeping silent.


This is in place for many reasons. One reason is that because when we talk about doing something we expend the energies needed to actually do it. 


It is really true the more we talk about doing something the less we actually end up doing it and also the more we talk about enjoying something the less we end up enjoying it.


The applies to speaking to others about and to speaking to ourselves about it in our own mind.


The same thing when preparing a lecture. If we talk a lot to ourselves about the lecture while preparing it, the lecture we give isn't really satisfying for some reason... All the creative energies were expended talking to ourselves about it and the consequently the talk lacked that creative spark and genuinity - and was delivered in a way that was too planned by the mind.


The best thing is, if we want to do something talk a bit about it or nothing even and then go and do it.


Of course communicate as necessary but cut out the unnecessary talk by being silent.


End (4540).
