Know people who spend their days at work, in your face talking about what they’re “going” to do one day? How they have all these big plans, million dollar ideas that are going to blow up big time? Isn’t it funny that those people are still, to this day, after all that talking, sitting next to you still working in the same cubicle? Well, it’s not so funny if that big talker and little walker is you.

Got a lot of great ideas but don’t know where to get started in making your dreams come true? Well our friends over at Black Enterprise say less is more. You shouldn’t be boasting about the plans you have if you can’t put them to action. When communicating with your bosses, or people you hope can help to take you to the next level, you shouldn’t sound like a mayoral candidate with a scroll full of promises. Keep quiet. Keep quiet with your plans until you’re able to start making something happen. If this is an issue for you, you’re definitely not alone.
