Speaking less often.

[Novacane]

What do you guys think about speaking less often? Only opening your mouth when it is absolutely necessary, or when introduced into a conversation? I've been thinking about toning down how much I do speak, so that when I do open my mouth and say something it comes across as of value and not just "hot air". I'd like to know if speaking less and keeping to oneself has worked for you guys in the sense that it ups intrigue, and allows people to truly value what you say. Apologies if this question is sort of all over the place and vague, wasn't to sure on how to word it!

Nova,

Excellent question!

This is something I've actually been working on for a while. After emailing Chase about an article, we talked about using non-verbals to control emotion strictly, using very little language, so when you do speak things are enhanced, and like you said your value is increased.

So Novacane, my answer to your question is, yes. If you can effectively use non-verbals like eye contact flirting, kino, body language, tone of voice, things of that nature. If you can effectively use non-verbals in place of speaking, do so because it tremendously increases your value!
