Italian art experts have made a surprising discovery inside the painted eyeballs of Leonardo da Vinci’s 500 year old masterpiece, “The Mona Lisa.” Some tiny letters and numbers. They think this encryption may be the name and birthdate of the mysterious half-smiling woman who was “Mona.” The question of her identity has stood as one of art’s most enduring mysteries, and has elevated the status of the unnamed woman in the painting to something of a Goddess. So then, if we confirm who she is, will we still be as fascinated with the painting? Hard to say, but I doubt anyone will argue with me that a secret has a powerful effect. Whether on the international stage or in your own life, exactly how, when, and how much to tell people can be the difference between killin’ it and not killin’ it. Like anything, managing strategic secret telling takes practice and discipline. Here’s an exercise to build your muscles – when your emotions want you to let information out, keep your mouth closed. When fear is inducing you to keep quiet, then take to the airwaves! Killin’ it!
