Words as seeds


"Think twice before you speak because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another." Napoleon Hill.

What words are you going to plant in someone today? Will you be building up or tearing down? Our words, whether measured or spilling out without thought, carry power. Words can linger in the mind and heart for years. They can cause us to believe lies about ourselves or they can encourage and equip.

So the question is: are you going to be a joy stealer or a dream grower?

  1. Wonderful reflections that I am sure we would all benefit from reminding ourselves of from time to time. How easy I find it to say the wrong thing and end up with my foot in my mouth! Thank you for this lovely reminder. I will watch my words today and see what grows.

    Your artwork is always inspiring.
