Tact
"Tact is thinking before you speak. It is telling the truth in a way that does not disturb or offend others. It is knowing what to say and what is better left unsaid… It is telling the truth with kindness."

Questions for reflection:
- How can I be honest and tactful at the same time?
- When are things better left unsaid?
- When have I been tactful recently?
- How can I stop and think before saying something I regret?
