I try to speak what's on my mind, but tactfully. I know I can be enormously abrasive at times, so I've developed the habit of rephrasing things in my mind before I say them.
If what you have to say will upset people, weigh it on balance: will it upset you more to hold it in than it will upset other people if you say it?
Also, if you think it needs to be said, say it. Just be prepared for consequences.
