Reminders of the power of language from Nelson

• Words of optimism spoken in love at the right moment can change lives for the better
• Resist the temptation to point out others’ mistakes. “Should haves” and “could haves” don’t help anyone who is struggling
• There are struggling people around you every day who need the infusion of hope that your carefully chosen words can bring.
• If you want to speak in a way that resonates with people and changes lives, choose words that will touch the heart.
• The words that have a lasting impact on you and on others are those that touch the heart – either positively or negatively.
• Not only can your words change the course of your personal story, they also have the potential to change the course of history.
• The effects of your words may be hard to see in the moment, but they will eventually show themselves in the quality of your life.

God’s best to you,

Nelson
