I Learned to move in silence and the result of my actions speaks for me, am happy i adopted this lifestyle and started to reinventing myself a year ago, I’m now living healthier, confident, stronger, making 6 figures, having leisure to enjoy family &friends. I feel happier and living my life for myself . This is to encourage someone “you can start anytime to have a reset it’s worth it! I’m striving to continue growing cus it’s a journey❤

@maxdmitry1912 I learnt to be frugal, minimal on spending, saving and paying myself first through Investing, made Plans, growing passive income, Read a lot of books on finance, followed my plan consistently.

@ms.mondie8913 11 месяцев назад

After watching this a second time, I decided to implement some of your strategies in my community today. And my God, it worked. I closed my mouth and allowed Holy Spirit to inform me what question to present when it was time. To my surprise, there were people in my congregation that were participating in the discussion who usually stay quiet. Because of this, we were able to address some of the fears they had. I will be trying this at work tomorrow. But I needed to circle back to you and say THANK YOU.❤

Crystal, we've been taught to speak up so much, to name it and claim it, but this art of being silent is life changing. You are wise beyond your years. Thanks!!!

@helped.2318 11 месяцев назад

Thank you Chrystal. You just opened my eyes because I never thought this was a problem until now. I feel others are too slow to think out a solution, so I practically think for them. Now I know better and will be intentional in building a silent culture🎉❤

@deborahmay8408 11 месяцев назад

After listening to this episode, I realize the importance of being silent in so many areas: relationships with my husband and my adult sons as well as others I come in contact with. I also realize that I may have actually hindered others from growing by not being silent and answering and providing the solution upfront. I plan to apply the "being silent" strategy.

@miahuskisson5888 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for this word. My husband has explained this in the middle of a “spirited discussion “. I dismissed it then but I hear you now. Lord shut my mouth and open my ears!🙌🏽

@AnnEvelyn7 11 месяцев назад

This has perfect timing for me. I hadn’t been listening to your podcasts and today I am. Just had a leadership training at my church - tables leads for our Women’s Bible study. We discussed silence. I don’t have a problem being silent for a lady to stop, think and process a question about the study. It’s the timing of that silence knowing when I have to move on due to time constraints. I know for me outside of being a table lead, I need silence in my personal life…to listen to others and listen to God. I sometimes wonder if He can’t answer my prayers because I am talking too much for him to respond!

@Webbgurl2000 11 месяцев назад

It depends on why you’re quiet. If you’re quiet because of fear that’s different. I think I want to learn to use my voice more healthily.

@marjorymsuku9312 11 месяцев назад

Wow, that is so cool! Learning to play a musical instrument! I love piano!😊👏👏👏💕💕

@robingray9519 11 месяцев назад

This was so powerful. I started listening earlier but had to leave. I was tested and immediately I went into silence and the individual played back what they said and boom 💥 victory was won without confrontation. Thank you woman of God🙏♥️🦋

What a great video!! I learned alot..thank you for sharing your wisdom❤

@michelleduncan4615 11 месяцев назад

I must say I feel seen. For years I've felt like being quiet was a stigma. I was voted one of the quietest in my senior class, when in actuality I'm more quiet in groups than one on one; but just like you I tend to speak only when I feel compelled to say something. On the other hand if I was talking with someone and there was a pause, I would quickly try to fill it with words because I was afraid the other person would think I'm not interesting enough to carry on a conversation. However recently I've allowed myself to sit in the space, and discovered when that happens, the other person usually brings up something else to talk about and we continue to flow. I realize there's a time to speak up and a time to be silent, but this message is confirmation that when I am silent it is not a flaw.

@JessNell8 11 месяцев назад

Wow...im speechless...I would get uncomfortable with silence in study groups...so I would jump in....not because I wanted to be right or talk so much...I felt maybe nobody had anything to say...😢I willnot fill the silence...I will do and be better...now I know better...this was such a blessing and on time.🤗💛

@mslashaundap 11 месяцев назад

This subject is the current theme within my household. I have been convicted to master the art of silence and to teach my girls the same. 40 years of learning toxic behaviors that are completely antithetical toward the aforementioned has made it significantly hard to achieve. However, I know Holy Spirit is able and I am willing so I praise God in advance for victory!🙏🏾🎉 Thank you for sharing such gems.❤

@cordeliakimble2586 11 месяцев назад

Excellent!! Very helpful. I want to maximize the gift of other people in my life. Lord, help me cuz talkers TALK!😂 Help me to grow in wisdom and make space for others, in Jesus name. Thanks sister Chrystal ❤🙏🏽

@Introduction08 11 месяцев назад

Wow! If your voice sounded like mine, I would think that I had recorded this about myself, about my life. If it gets too quiet, I impulsively speak. No matter the environment. People think that I am extroverted, when in fact I am more introverted. More recently I have been working on keeping silent during those “weird moments” and it feels good when I pass the test and allow others to fill the quiet space. 😊

It's wisdom to shut up sometimes and it's kind!

@MsGratefulgal 11 месяцев назад

😅Proverbs 1:20, 21. Wisdom shouts in the streets. She cries out in the public square. 21 She calls to the crowds along the main street, to those gathered in front of the city gate: Luke 19:14 And He answered and said unto them, “I tell you that if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.”

@glenda7846 11 месяцев назад

@@MsGratefulgal Whoever restrains his words has knowledge, and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding. Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent. Proverbs 17:27-28

@MsGratefulgal 11 месяцев назад

@@glenda7846 thanks dear. It is important to know when to speak, and to be moderate in everything. Jesus, a great teacher started teaching at 12, practiced the power of silence early in the mornings (Mark 1:35) and the rest of the day, He engaged with people. Anyway people came to Him freely to listen. It depends on what you are saying to others. If you are speaking life to others, it is saving and people will listen to you. If you are quarrelling with another, then you restrain your mouth, you shut up not to increase anger in another person😊 "The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life"...Let us choose to speak life unto others, if it is not life, helping word, keep your peace😊 Noah preached for 120 yrs Lot chose to live a righteous life in fear of the people around him. Heavens declare the glory of God without speech, without lips Speak life to others with your lips and your life

@shakiramcgee2023 11 месяцев назад

I needed to hear this tonight. (Confirmation) I broke down in tears a couple of days ago because God showed me during a conversation with my son that I don’t allow other people to pour into me. That hit deep🥲 It was the first time that I felt like I let my son pour into me by asking him a question and being quiet allowing him to speak. Not just hearing him but actually listening. All this time I thought I always pour into others & they leave my cup empty but no it was because I don’t allow them to pour into me. Lord I thank you🙌🏽 All I could do was cry & hug my son while telling him how much I thank him ❤️

I am going to take action steps today. In Christ's love, Michele.
