Who is the leader of your words? Are you the owner of them, or do they come from someone else’s influence, filter, or perception of the world? When was the last time you checked?

When speaking to others and leading conversations, the words you choose matter. The choices you make in representing your thoughts and opinions create the environment you live in. They can trigger others or pull them in. Every conversation you have shapes the relationships with the people you are talking to.

Being able to gain perspective from others may help shape your view; just remember that you have the freedom to have your own opinion. It is being able to see the world from multiple perspectives that make it so exciting and why so many things are possible. Who knows who is right anyway? Real estate has taught me that anything is possible and there is something new to learn every day.
