People Will Talk . . . . What Are They Saying?

People Will Talk . . . .  What Are They Saying?

“People will talk . . . . let them speak of you in high

regard . . . Let them speak of you as someone

they trust . . . . and someone that can

be counted on.”

Lou Ludwig, Sales and Management Consultant,

Success Coach, Speaker, Trainer and Author

 

 

 

As I see it . . . . . . . .

People will talk . . . .  but what will they say?

 

Don’t spend your time worrying about what people will say about you. Instead invest your time . . . . and energy in the actions that will create a positive reputation . . . . and image. One where they speak about you . . . .  a positive experience.

 

Have them speak of you as a person of integrity . . . . Someone who can be trusted . . . . and counted on.

 

What people will say about you is your choice . . . . and created through your decisions and actions. You choose who you are . . . . and the way you want people to see you . . . . and speak about you.

 

Live a life of purpose and achievement.  Be a giver to those around you. And you will find that people will speak in glowing terms about you . . . . and you will be admired by many.

 

People will talk . . . . and reputation will speak for you.

 

People will talk . . . . What are they Saying . . .  is really up to you.

Lou - I have always heard it said that people are going to talk about you anyway.  You might as well have them say something good.

I like when people talk about me...I have only treated people fairly and don't know of any issues as of late.

We can never control others, only ourselves. There will always be both sides, good and bad. The goal is to have the good and great outweigh anything negative.

Hello Lou

Another wonderful write and when were younger we have concern what others may say about us to our face and behind our back. But as we get older we start to think less of their gossip ;o)

Thanks for the words of wisdom, Lou, if we lose our good reputation it is hard to ever get it back.

Lou ... when you do the right thing always (or as much as always seems to be) then whatever people will say about you will find its basis in the right things.  If the comments are less than what you may hope, the loss is theirs ... and not work the investment of energy on the negative ...

Good morning Lou.  Hopefully people will speak well of me, though it's not something that I worry about.
