Clint Smith: The danger of silence

Clint Smith: The danger of silence


Clint talked about silence and how it affects your choices in life that might lead to an unwanted or unaccepted situation toward your perspective or to what you want. In the speech he gave, he quoted one of Martin Luther quotes, which said that you’ll remember the silence of your friends instead of remembering the words that an enemy said; which in other words, mean that silence can show weakness, agreement to a situation and agreeing with what you’re hearing.

Clint, as a teacher he helps and encourages his students to express their thoughts and ideas instead of silence. He taught them four steps, which were read critically, write consciously, speak clearly, and tell your truth.
Clint explained that he failed in expressing his truth, because he was expressing the truth that people wanted to hear instead of what people needed to hear. Clint states that silence is not a solution, and instead, you should talk and express your own thoughts and ideas.  



Points:
·       Tell your truth, and share your thoughts.
·       Giving something up and scarifying, is one of the most meaning full and worthy thing to do.
·       Speaking and spreading your thoughts and ideas is very valuable thing to scarifies to share with the world.
·       People spend time on what other people say instead of thinking of what they didn’t.

·       Slice shows fear.
