There are things about your life that should be kept secret from people, regardless of the calibre of person you are. Many of us don't know when to keep quiet when we are being asked some sensitive questions about our lives. Certain things about your marriage, your place of work, and your personal life should not be disclosed to anyone who makes inquiries about them. You don't have any idea that the information could be used against you. Don't say it doesn't mean anything because a lot of people have gotten their bank accounts hacked due to this mistake. Some people don't need to know where you live or what you do for a living. Even details about your marriage should be kept secret from those who are not happy with the union you have with your spouse. Those who are not happy to see you make progress should never know about your next plan. Otherwise, your competitors can outsmart you. This life is full of hurdles that you will encounter, especially in your relationships with people. Wisdom requires that you don't let people know your secrets, so they won't know your weak point. Anything in your life that is the center or source of your joy shouldn't be known by anyone. If they don't know this, they won't be able to manipulate your happiness. Your happiness will not depend on anyone else. If they don't know you, they can't hurt you. Keeping your financial status private will keep you safe from criminals. If you are expecting some money, don't let anyone know about it, not even a close friend. They don't need to know how much you earn monthly. If you have a strategy that's making your marriage or financial life work, try to keep it to yourself because of the critics. There are things in your life that if you tell anyone, you risk losing your reputation or a big opportunity. Things like this are better not to be introduced into your conversation. Anything you say that can bring down the reputation of the company that is paying you, or a spouse who has been assisting you, should be avoided. Otherwise, it will look like ingratitude. If your wife financially assists you or you're a woman who assisted her husband, never tell anyone about it. This should remain a secret between the two of you. You are doing this to protect the integrity of your household.
