How do you know that less really is more?

I just mentioned in this story that I’m practicing speaking less and stillness. I hope the notes I have for you today will help you start practicing or solidify the idea that less really is more.

Let start, why speaking less and embracing stillness can be beneficial.

1. 🧠Clarity of Thought

When you speak less, you have more mental space to formulate your thoughts clearly. Instead of expending energy on constant chatter, you can focus on the essence of what you want to convey, leading to more precise communication.

2. 👏Active Listening

Speaking less often encourages active listening, allowing you to better understand other’s perspective and responses. This can lead to more meaningful interactions and effective problem-solving.

3. 😇Reduced Noise

In a world filled with distractions, embracing stillness allows you to cut through the noise and concentrate on what truly matters. This can enhance your ability to concentrate on your goals and objectives, leading to increased productivity and success.

4. 😁Enhanced Presence

By speaking less and being more present in the moment, you can cultivate a sense of calm and confidence. This can improve your ability to connect with others and make a lasting impression.

🤔Another point we should consider

Reducing time spent on social media can indeed free up valuable for meaningful activities.

1. Increased productivity
   Limiting your time on the social media can help you reclaim hours in day that can be redirected towards productive tasks and hobbies.
2. Improved mental health
   By reducing your exposure to social media, you may experience improved well-being and a greater sense of happiness.
3. Enhanced focus
   By minimizing your time on social media, you can train your brain to concentrate better on tasks at hand, leading to increased efficiency and effectiveness.
4. Stronger relationships
   By spending less time on social media, you can prioritize spending quality time with friends and family, strengthening your relationships and fostering deeper connections.
5. Personal growth
   With the time saved from scrolling through the social media feeds, you can invest in activities that promote personal growth, such as reading, learning a new skill, exercising, or pursuing creative interests.

I promise to update this post whenever I make progress toward my goal of practicing less really is more.
