Meetings have taught me one valuable lesson:
Watch the quiet people.
There are these hidden people that attend meetings.
They say nothing.
You can attend ten meetings in a row and never hear them say a word.
Their words are a privilege reserved for the royal family.
You find yourself dying to know what they would say.
They act like a fly on the wall.
But with every meeting, they get smarter, by saying nothing at all.
They observe the loud beasts, rather than become a beast.
Knowing when not to talk is an art.
