" If we are not ashamed to think it, we should not be ashamed to say it. "

Thinking is without filters, because the only person who knows what you're thinking is you. Speaking on the other hand entails a little holding back because there are others involved in the conversation. So many times we drape our message in a way that don't hurt people. And sometimes we're afraid that people will judge us while sometimes we just plainly lack the courage to do so. Due to this, the original message gets lost.

May be we're afraid that it'll give out a version of us that we don't want to show people. A version of us that we didn't plan to become. So, there are two ways to it:

1. If something is hurting you or something wrong is happening than bring out the courage to speak it out loud. Without the fear of alienation or rejection, speak your heart out because that's the first and foremost step towards change.

2. Now, If you feel what you're thinking is wrong and your conscience calls you out on that then reverse the quote. If you're ashamed to speak it, then be ashamed to think of it too.

This will help you bring out your most transperent self. What is inside will be on the outside too. Though it's just a start to being as clear as glass these steps will bring you immense respect, love and trust.
