It is important to understand clearly what you are about to say. Refrain from talking about other people's matters. Discuss tedious matters in person. Do not disclose your plans. Negotiation is done best face to face. Never boast about what is not yet finished. Sense the atmosphere before you share good news. Needless to announce what is already known to the public. Praises should be said often. Always make kind deeds known. Talk openly about what is for the greater good. Publish and speak about good inspirations. Spread good news far and wide. Be honest about the promises you have made. Never speak empty words of promise. Leave talks about tomorrow for tomorrow.
