Gossip, like fire starts with a tiny spark and if fuelled, it creates a fire which spreads and spreads.
If you have the habit of fueling gossip, remind yourself: relationships thrive on trust. How would you feel if others gossiped about you?
Even though most of us delight in gossip, resist the urge. Try not to say anything about others which you wouldn't say to their face.
And when someone else starts to gossip, say you're not interested or you're not comfortable discussing it. Alternatively, you can just opt out of the conversation or change the topic.
