Guard your heart above all else,
for it is the source of life.
Don’t let your mouth speak dishonestly,
and don’t let your lips talk deviously.
Stop and think. Don’t live your life out of your gut. Have a plan and be logical about your choices. Weigh the consequences of your actions and don’t just live “in the moment.” When we speak, it can have a devastating impact on those around us. A bad attitude is contagious and can cause people to be predisposed to distrust and dislike others. Guard your emotions and be sure that what you say is not only accurate but in no way misleading. It’s not enough to simply be correct you must also be honest.
