Do not, under any circumstances, believe the old nursery rhyme, about sticks and stones.
Words are powerful, and they can heal like heaven - or hurt like hell. Language has the power to create or destroy.
Use your words wisely. Especially in the hustle of daily professional activity, let the intention of your words be filled with kindness and wisdom.
It is a much more powerful long-term strategy, even I have to stop and remember at times.
