Have read many reviews on this subject.
First of all let me make a statement of this Century!
’I do not agree that anyone needs to have an EFFECTIVE MOUTHSHUT PROFILE.’

Effective for who, effective for what? Effective to be effective? Do means justify ends?
You are not writing your CV for a job or to please someone when you put your profile on Mouthshut.com. Do that on Monster.com. If you are not educated, you are not, if you are not wise and dont want to pretend to be wise, that’s smart.
You just need to have a PROFILE which ever way it is.
If you are just a simpleton, dont read much, dont go dancing to pubs, dont listen to too much music, your profile will be simple. Just like that. If you don’t read THE BOOK OF QUOTATIONS, you cannot be expected to write quotes. Anycase, it is not my smart words when I quote Oscar Wilde and say so.
If you have not travelled beyond 10 kms square kms from the place of your birth(like my favorite mongrel Mootu the street dog, he is smart and effective) what can you say about travel. If you do not have a background, foreground, what can you write about that?
But does that limit you from writing a PROFILE? Certainly not! Be brave and just put it there on an’ As is where is basis.’ And put a price if you think some ones wants to buy your profile like people buy used cars./used clothes.
And what is the meaning of this webite MOUTHSHUT? It means’SHUT YOUR MOUTH’. Full stop.
Tahat is why so many smart MS Members dont stick their snaps or dont even write much about themselves, like SPIKE my best friend. Now read Spikeguards Profile and read mine, then tell me who is smart. Fools dare to go where horses do not. And Spike is the winning horse. I told him twice upgrade your profile. He refused. Smart man, Spike.
And MANY SMARTER ONES DONT WRITE A WORD AT ALL. It took me a long time to figure out why.
Like a fool I wrote balh blah blah about myself on my profile page. Now I want to cancel all that but 1000 folks have already read my profile, effective or not effective. Now what do I do, huh?
Simple folks, if you are simple put simple Profile. Dont put profile simbly because you have to put one because others have put one Effectively or not effectively.
A wise man, an old man, then say 55 yrs, my Dad’s office car driver, a semi literate, he once said to me when I was 12 yrs old:
’ Chota saheb, never forget one thing. If you meet a man how so ever literate or illeterate, if he has lived on earth one day more than you, he has learned one thing more than you. Find out what that one thing is and you will be a winner all your life!’
Genius! Fantastic u say? Now for me that old driver, wise driver, street smart driver was, is, will be, THE MOST EFFECTIVE MAN I MET ON MOTHER EARTH!
I got his terrific Profile with this one simple sentence.
What 100 books of quotes could never teach me this mother of all DRIVERS did in ONE SENTENCE.
He also taught me to drive a car when I was just 13 yrs old!
I am not thru with this yet. Will get back later this evening.saaalaaa.
