Believe it or not, people who speak more about others then
themselves in conversations are less likely to suffer from heart
disease!
Larry Scherwitz, Ph.D., a research scientist from the University of
California, conducted an innovative study in which he taped the conversations
of approximately 600 men; A third of these men were suffering from
heart disease; the rest of the men were all healthy.
He counted how often they used the words I, me, and mine in
conversations. When he compared his results, he discovered that the
men who used those words the most had the highest risk for heart trouble.
Yes, self-centeredness is indeed a risk factor for coronary heart
disease.
Make it a habit to speak more about others, make it a habit
to listen to others more and refer to yourself less.
Your heart will love you for it!
