Words are more powerful than we realize.
Masaru Emoto’s well-known experiment showed this clearly:
He placed cooked rice into two jars—speaking positive words to one and negative words to the other.
The result?
The jar that received positive words stayed cleaner, while the one exposed to negativity broke down and decayed faster.
Whether or not you follow his methodology, modern science agrees on one thing:
🧠 Positive language increases oxytocin
🔥 Negative language increases cortisol—the stress hormone
When you speak to yourself and others with clarity, kindness, and intention, you’re not being “soft.”
You’re creating a biochemical environment that boosts problem-solving, reduces stress, and strengthens leadership performance.
Talk nicely to yourself.
Talk nicely to others.
That’s how you create clarity—and move forward with impact.
