Laconic. A word you may not be familiar with, but it represents an approach to communication that is valuable for you to consider. The definition of laconic is: Using, or involving the use of a minimum of words. Concise, to the point of seeming rude or mysterious.
The word laconic comes from the Greek capital city of Sparta, which was called Laconia. The Spartans were well known for their terseness of speech (direct and to the point).
the laconic style of communication is just that; direct and to the point. Using this style of communication means that you only say what is needed; no extra fluff. How many times have you said more than you should have? What was the impact of that?
The laconic style also means that you don't express your opinions. When you think about it, your opinion really only has value to you; and you should be humble enough to consider that your opinion may be flawed and may change over time.
You'll see much more success in life if you spend most of your time observing the world, taking action when needed, and never giving your enemies anything they can use against you.
