Tact and Poise

Tact is the sign of emotional and social intelligence. Poise is an indication of emotional control and training which results in calmness and serenity under pressure. You speak in front of everybody as if you speak with yourself, an activity you do everyday. What you have learned about tact is the cultivation of respect for others and the suppression of your own ego. Always remember Buddha's teachings and you will have poise. Learn from mistakes and learn to forgive yourself.
