Keeping Your Mouth Shut or Speaking what is on your mind.
Convict
I have learned the hard way (several times) for me personally, it's better to keep your mouth shut.

I used to be that way. But my livelihood/career path kinda demands that I don't do that. I've really had to learn to step outside of myself and just tell people that some shit just isn't okay. And I've learned to incorporate that into other aspects of my life. It's uncomfortable, and it can be very mentally/emotionally taxing, especially for someone like me who would just rather shut down in the face of conflict, but it's definitely worth it.
I have also learned to pick my battles. If all it's gonna do is waste time and energy that could be spent elsewhere, then it's really not worth it.
And if I find myself in a situation where I have to ignore the battle for the time being, I just bide my time until I know I'll win the war. It all comes out eventually. And when it does, you'll regret not saying anything.
I just stick to my guns, and I never let anyone dictate how a circumstance should make me feel or convince me that their own feelings in regards to a situation are more valid than my own. If that requires speaking up, I do so. And if it requires shutting up, I do that too.
This. Sometimes you have to ask yourself what good can come of this before you express your honest opinion. There is something to be said for timing and diplomacy on occasion.

Wow! I honestly can't remember when I've agreed with something more. Now... if only I can remember to put this into practice more often.

Those that know me well in the real world, expect me to speak my mind on any given topic. And it's not to be mean or anything. Just I'll comment on whatever topic were discussing. It's called conversation. Now if you're asking me for advice- I'm not going to sugar coat anything.

I never leave any situation wishing I had said more. I always say what's on my mind, I don't hold anything back.

depends on your age, Seniors tend to be less tolerant of stupidity and tell it like it is, after all, they have not much to lose.

I am a person who keeps things in. I do not like conflict and will go out of my way to avoid it. Saying this I know it is not very healthy but its how I am. I would rather make someone else feel better and keep my mouth shut and deal with it. I recently decided to speak up and it did not turn out well so now we are back to square one.

Speaking up....I rarely keep my mouth closed shut.
Kiss My Wiggleass Baby
I almost always keep my mouth closed, I refuse to let things bother me or get to me but occasionally I blow (and not in a good way) and when i do, I really do go for it

I am brutally honest...
Active Ink Slinger
Always honest.. blunt but never cruel.. and give space for the other party to react the same.. the point is to listen.. I don't speak to hear myself talk.. I already know what I'm thinking..
