Clearer Expression!

"I wish I could express myself like him!" Have you ever said that?if so, you are not alone as many people today find it difficult to express themselves clearly.

But now, like never before, clear expression is required. Employers and their employees must convince customers of the benefits of certain goods or services. Speakers should pay attention to their audience with informative and interesting material. Parents and children need to communicate their feelings to each other.

Why do so many people have a hard time expressing themselves clearly? What can be done to fix this problem?

Obstacles to clear expression

Sometimes emotions are a barrier to clear expression. For example, a child who is crying at home and crying for uncomfortable discomfort while playing may not be able to clarify what happened until they have calmed down. A person who is excited about newly acquired information may try to "say it all at once" which is confusing. People speaking to a live audience can sometimes be "empty" due to nervousness. Clear expression means that you are in control of your emotions. But that's not all.

Our thoughts can be another obstacle to clear expression because what a person says is only an expression of what they are thinking. When an idea is not clear in a person's mind, it arises when they speak. Clear expression, however, comes from clear and orderly thinking. It can be a challenge. Because?

Because when we think about a topic for discussion, there are many details that enter our consciousness at the same time. The people involved, the things that happened, the time, the place, everything can come together. If we're not careful, all we can do is “think out loud,” resulting in conversations that go through uneven sentences, mistakes, and regressions. Fearful thinking also causes "bad words" like "uh", "y-uh", "so-uh". Many people who had listened to a tape of their conversations were saddened to learn that the general impression of their speech was a series of long "huuhhh". Has this ever happened to you

You can learn the art of expressing yourself clearly.

Some people will find a clear expression relatively easily. For others, it seems difficult to achieve this goal. But if a person really wants to be clear and is willing to work hard to make it happen, they will definitely move on. Are you ready to give it a try? Here's a simple, convenient method:

Think of an interesting topic. Then, on a sheet of paper, draw six columns with the titles of the above facts words (who, what, why, when, where and how). Take a look around and see what you can find out about it. Fill in the details in the columns you find useful. Do the same with a different look and so on. The result is an ordered event.

The next step is to decide how the information will be used. This will help you take another piece of paper and print out (in one sentence if possible) the main idea that you want to impress your listeners. Then, briefly write down what type of audience you want to target and what action to take. Another room can be reserved for examples or illustrations.

Putting these things down on paper can give you an idea of ​​what you want to say. After you've practiced this way for a while, you will find that you can only do much of this process in your head. Clear thought and expression is part of you.

The art of expressing oneself clearly is within reach. But it takes time, patience, and hard work. Are you ready to try? You'll be glad you did, and so will your audience.
