You Are Not Communicating Properly

chte.jpgYou make too many meaningless statements, and it limits your progress in this life. Day in, day out, you basically say words that really mean pretty much very little, for all intents and purposes. At the end of the day, fundamentally, as far as that goes, you truly spend far too much time groping for your words. If your goal was to hit one out of the park, you got held up at the gates, and didn’t even step up to the plate. Furthermore, if I may say so, essentially, at the bottom line, you sound like an idiot, with all due respect, and stuff like that.

You need to realize that your desire to communicate quickly is causing you to communicate slowly. Look at Mr. Obama. He chooses his words the way a thin man chooses meats on a buffet. He pauses, considers the situation, reflects upon his intentions, and selects the most succulent and succinct sentence. Like all forms of organization, a cluttered thought process makes for twice the work with half the result.

Too often people are simply waiting for their partner to pause for breath, so they may ejaculate their own thoughts. Worse still, the hurried rush to explain one’s self forces one to repeat sentiments, talk in circular patterns, and generally prattle on and on and on. It is the verbal equivalent of Shaggy and Scooby-Doo attempting to elude a spook by spinning their leg-wheels. Whole lotta noise, whole lotta movement, and no one is any closer to their destination at the end of it.

Eliminate the superfluous words in your speaking. Pause, consider, and react. Do not be afraid of the tiny gaps in conversation. If a person is asking your advice, give them measured advice, not senseless cliché and blather. You are insightful. Prove it.
