KISS

In the Career & Healing Center context, KISS is the abbreviation for Keeping It Simple and Straightforward.

However, the meaning of KISS – as with most terms and concepts – depends on our perspective, views, ideas and opinions in life. From a certain perspective or in a specific context and equally, as true KISS might also imply…

  • Keep It Simple Stupid.
  • Keep It Simple and Safe.
  • Keep It Short and Sweet.
  • Keep It Straight and Simple.
  • Keep It Sensible & Simple.
  • A wholesome act of smooching.
  • Kids Invite Someone Special.
  • Keep It Super Secret.
  • An American rock band.
  • Kinder SS.
  • Knights In Service of Satan.

The innocent abbreviation KISS in itself could give rise to cognitive dissonance and it might be a confusing abbreviation when we fail to apply our common sense to determine what meaning we should attach to it in a particular context, situation or event.
