Suggestion Sunday: Gossip is good for ya, actually. According to science, 60% of our conversations involve gossip of some sort + we begin gossiping for social relationships by the age of 5. That said, our reasonings can vary + change the impact of our gossip tremendously, as a result. There's a fine line between venting + ruining reputations. How to gossip better:Why am I sharing this now? To potentially to protect someone? or to make a deeper connection with someone? or are you venting? or stirring the pot? jealous? hurt? angry? bored? But if you're spreading this just to be a dick? Don't. People will see through it eventually + lose trust for you. Is this true, + is it okay for you to share? It's not cool to betray someone's trust, just to sound like you 'know some shit about some shit' or whatever.What is the best case scenario from sharing this? Worst case scenario? Who will be affected? Anyone? How so?Check out our instagram for a bonus suggestion on how to get out of gossip-y conversations you'd rather not be in.
