In a world that often equates volume with impact, it’s easy to fall into the trap of believing that the loudest voice wins. But true influence isn’t about decibels; it’s about resonance. Think of a pebble dropped into still water. The initial splash might be small, but the ripples expand, touching the furthest edges. This is the power of resonance – a quiet, persistent force that spreads and connects.
We often underestimate the profound impact of stillness. In the silence, we can truly listen – not just to the words spoken, but to the unspoken needs and emotions around us. This deep understanding allows our subsequent speech to be intentional, targeted, and ultimately, more impactful. Don’t mistake quiet for weakness. True influence isn’t about dominating the conversation; it’s about creating an echo that lingers long after the initial sound. It’s about the power of stillness, the wisdom of listening, and the strength of intentional speech.
Practice purposeful silence today. In your next meeting, say less—but make it matter more.
