No!
Well, this is a good wake-up to the fact that there is a lot I say that is not necessary. When I ask this question and the other person realizes that it is going to be something they don’t want to hear, that they are going to get the feeling of being accosted, etc. then I know I’m needing to shut up! Really – what a great wake-up call!

I’ve learned that this is the best idea for when I’m at staff meetings at work. The more I am quiet the better the outcome at the meeting. It is best to just listen! Saying what is on my mind tends to get me in BIG trouble. Either more work than I’d like to take on or hurt feelings or that I can’t explain my idea well enough.
Oh the joy of being QUIET! Really QUIET!

I never knew

how important this is until I had this as a goal. – I never realized how hard this is for me until I saw this goal on my list on a regular basis – I never knew how important a skill this is to have until I listed it as a goal. WOW! A daily reminder that being quiet is a good thing – a really GOOD THING!
