Keeping one's mouth shut...Need some tips/tricks

OK, so my first 25 years in the working world was pretty simple, that is it was my place, so I could speak my mind. Unfortunately, it did not prepare me for the real working world. You know, the one where keeping your mouth shut and not saying stupid shit is a benefit.

I've definitely gotten better at it, but I still have the occasional slip and I'm tired of tasting my shoes. Not to mention that it could mean serious backlash at times. I'm hoping that some of you have experience with this and what tips and tricks you have for keeping the mouth/brain clutch slipping freely.

Any thoughts?
